The Brazilian Legal Society (BLS) at New York University School of Law (NYU) aggregates current and former NYU Law students, faculty members, professionals, and other individuals interested in academic and business interchange between Brazil and the U.S.
BLS’s primary objective is to establish a forum where Brazilian legal, political, economic, cultural, and social issues can be openly addressed and discussed. BLS organizes and supports academic and business events in Brazil and abroad to accomplish that objective.
In addition, together with international and Brazilian law firms, NGOs, and other public and private institutions, BLS engages in selected projects designed to foster the development of Brazilian public and private sectors.
