There is no need to follow the herd

And so, an image of paralogue and shamelessness was created, which citizens only understand when it is about their defense or that of their relatives: then it is justifiable. For others, it is just idle chatter and shame. There is always news about the fact that law is one of the least trustworthy professions. But think about it: what kind of lawyer are we talking about? What is this stereotype that causes so much distrust? What is his role?
One of the cases described in the “Manual de Direito Empresarial” (18th edition, Editora Atlas, 2024) was the creation of Broto S.A. The manual aims to present cases to facilitate learning; in this case, an example of bulk sms myanmar corporate metamorphosis. The company was created to run a digital insurance platform, with half of its capital subscribed by Banco do Brasil S.A. and the other half by Brasilseg Companhia d Seguros. A multi-million dollar business, with no conflicts. A planned legal construction. The administrators of these corporations trusted the work of their lawyers. A lot. But this type of lawyer is not that common; those who are not in the law field know few of them. There is a problem here. There is a deficit. And the formation of this deficit is historical. Let's go to the law schools, created 200 years ago: 1824, by act of Dom Pedro I. Let's take a look at legal education and its role in this state of affairs.
Nowadays, it is rare to find law schools that ask a law student to draft a contract. But you can't leave law school without drafting [many] petitions and grounds for appeal; some people do more mock trials than bylaws. Does anyone know of a student who, alone or in a group, was asked to draft the bylaws of a privately held company? So how will a law student who has finally passed the Bar Exam work on the legal structuring of companies ? How will he or she talk to a family and assess whether or not it is a situation that recommends the formation of a family holding company ? We all want Brazil to develop; but how will there be development without a legion of lawyers capable of forming simple or business companies, regulating shareholder adjustments, and regulating their activities?
