Economic Crimes Challenge the Legal System and Demand a New Stance from Brazilian Advocacy

With experience in high-profile operations, attorney Joabs Sobrinho leads a new generation of lawyers specializing in complex financial fraud cases

São Paulo, Brasil; Rio de Janeiro, Brasil; Niterói, Brasil; Nova York, Estados Unidos , 28 Jun 2025 (Viralpressreleases.com) - In 2024, pyramid schemes and economic frauds moved over R$ 3.2 billion in Brazil. While criminals refine their schemes using crypto assets and complex corporate structures, a new kind of lawyer is gaining prominence: technical, strategic, and prepared to operate in high - complexity legal operations.

 

Joabs Sobrinho is one of the names that symbolize this shift. With a strong performance in Operation Pyramis and a background in Criminal Law, Tax Law, and Criminology, he stands at the forefront of damage control - whether representing defrauded victims or ensuring due legal process for high - profile defendants.

In Operation Queops, which uncovered a fraud involving 15 companies and R$ 1.6 billion in crypto assets, legal work behind the scenes was essential to decode the financial engineering of the crimes, which have mainly targeted high-net-worth business owners. Joabs combined technical knowledge and strategy to help dismantle sophisticated schemes with discretion and precision.

Today, the criminal attorney is sought after - both for defense and as an assistant to the prosecution - by families, investment funds, and business owners dealing with the consequences of large-scale fraud. In times when reputation and assets are at risk, advocacy steps away from rhetoric and becomes a shield. Joabs Sobrinho maintains offices in Brazil (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Niterói) and on Fifth Avenue in the United States.
