Esther Miriam Sandoval Flesch (São Paulo, March 9, 1967) is a Brazilian lawyer with a doctorate from the University of São Paulo (USP). She worked for the law firm Trench, Rossi e Watanabe (TRW) from 1989.[2][3]

Esther Flesch rose to become one of the most prominent lawyers in Brazil, and has achieved recognition in international rankings such as Latin Lawyer,[4] Latin American Corporate Counsel Association (LACCA),[5] and Legal 500.[6] She has also participated in various conferences and lectures in Brazil and abroad.[7][8][9][10][11][12]

In 2015 she was named one of the 100 most notable female lawyers worldwide in investigations and compliance by the Global Investigations Review (GIR) in the publication "Women in Investigations 2015." According to the publication, the list includes "women considered the most notable in the investigations field worldwide and includes professionals working in law firms, companies and in the public sector."[1][13][14]

JBS case

In 2018 Esther Flesch was mentioned in an inquiry that investigates the plea deals between JBS executives and the DA in Brazil.[15]

In 2017 she sued the Trench Rossi Watanabe law firm after being fired in an episode in which former DA Marcello Miller was hired by Trench to participate in negotiations of plea deals with JBS.[16] Amongst the reasons for the lawsuit were access to documents that the firm declined to provide.[17]

In April 2018 Esther Flesch's request was granted by the São Paulo Court of Law (TJSP).[18] A report in the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper revealed that, before she was fired, Flesch “was interviewed in the United States by four members of Baker McKenzie in a locked room for ten hours.” In the case, Flesch confirmed that the decision to hire the former DA was taken by a committee.[16]

In December 2018, VEJA magazine disclosed that Esther Flesch's defence had proof, including an e-mail, which revealed that the administration of Trench Rossi Watanabe had knowledge of the deal made with JBS. This included a bill in the amount of 700,000 reals sent to the company by the firm.[19]
