ANDERSEN BALLÃO ADVOCACIA was founded in 1979, in the city of Curitiba, by lawyer Wilson José Andersen Ballão, shortly after graduating in Law from the Federal University of Paraná. The firm was created with the objective of providing high quality legal services, initially in the area of International and Maritime Law, with individual and corporate clients, both national and foreign. In the mid-90s, the firm expanded its range of activities to meet the great demand arising from the high level of its services. Specialized departments were established for the main areas of law. Since then, the firm has consolidated itself as one of the most admired stalls in Paraná. Currently headquartered at Avenida Jaime Reis, in Curitiba, the firm maintains a team of specialized lawyers who are fluent in several languages. In addition to the experience of our professionals, the office has an efficient team of assistants and an excellent infrastructure, within the most demanding international standards.

This property, which now houses several departments of Andersen Ballão Advocacia, dates back to 1976. The original project was elaborated by the renowned and late architect Julio Pechmann. Initially designed for a vocational school, it was also a famous nightclub, gym and dance school.
In 2015, architects Mariana Manzoni and Rafael Gonçalves, maintaining the pre-existing construction project, transformed the more than 1000m² into modern facilities for up to 95 jobs.
Named ABA Hamburg, in reference to the German city where our founding partner, Wilson Ballão, completed his postgraduate studies in International and Maritime Law in the early 1980s. The cosmopolitan atmosphere of Hamburg sharpened Dr. Ballão’s interest in international relations and the integration of different cultures.
