Diego has 12+ years across Latin American employment law with a primary focus on Brazil (CLT and eSocial) and Mexico (LFT). Former senior associate at a São Paulo employment boutique and in-house labour counsel for a regional retail group operating across six LATAM countries.
Diego is Peorient’s Latin America employment law lead. He qualified as an Abogado in Brazil, spent four years at one of São Paulo’s best-known employment boutiques arguing CLT reclassification cases at the Tribunal Regional do Trabalho, then went in-house as labour counsel for a regional retail group with operations in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, and Peru. The 13th-salary calculation traps that catch foreign employers? He has seen all of them. He has personally negotiated 40+ collective bargaining agreements (CCT) in Brazil and was on the implementation team when the Reforma Tributária rolled out across 2026. He writes the Peorient Latin America coverage from his desk in São Paulo, including the Brazil and Mexico country guides and the 13th-month pay reference content.
