Analysis
Sao Paulo sizzles as US firms hit Brazil market
After jetting down to Sao Paulo every few weeks for years, Jonathan Bisgaier has as many close friends in Brazil's largest city as he does in his native New York. And, starting this month, he'll be seeing them even more often. The Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom partner heads up the firm's newly opened Sao Paulo office, joining a recent rush of Am Law 200 firms opening up in Latin America's hottest economy. "As robust as everything has been for some time, it's been even more so since 2004," says Bisgaier, who brings with him half a dozen Portuguese-speaking associates from New York. "The view is that Brazil has finally broken out of its boom-and-bust cycle."
