Academia de Direito is a legal education platform based in São Paulo, Brazil. Its pages highlight “Cursos de Excelência em Direito de Família e Sucessões,” meaning premium courses in family and succession law. Its core positioning is not general legal education, but professional development for lawyers, helping legal practitioners stay updated on legislative changes, improve case-handling skills, and gain a competitive edge in specialized practice areas.
The courses focus on Brazilian family law, succession law, and related practical scenarios, including “Direito de Família Expert,” “Inventário e Partilha Judicial e Extrajudicial,” “Direito das Sucessões,” “Ação de Alimentos,” and “Planejamento Patrimonial Familiar e Sucessório.” Course length varies significantly, ranging from short 2-hour classes to comprehensive 70-hour programs. The page clearly emphasizes “100% Online,” allowing students to learn at their own time and place. The menu also includes sections such as live online sessions, in-person courses, and Road Show Training, but the main content primarily introduces online courses.
One notable differentiator is the included “KIT Modelos Petições,” meaning templates for petitions, appeals, and other legal documents. For lawyers, these materials can be directly useful for case handling and legal drafting, making them more practical than purely theoretical courses.
The platform’s main instructor/endorser is Nelson Shikicima. He has practiced law in São Paulo for 27 years, holds a doctorate and postdoctoral background in law, previously served as a counselor for an OAB-SP subsection and as president of its Family and Succession Law Committee, and has 27 years of legal teaching experience. Based on the information disclosed on the page, the instructor’s credibility appears strong.
Pricing is on a per-course basis, roughly ranging from R$157 to R$797. Some courses display discounts, such as the family law expert course reduced from R$997 to R$797, and the estate inventory and partition course reduced from R$597 to R$497. The main text does not explain payment methods, installment options, refunds, or course access duration.
The advantages are its focused subject area, clearly presented instructor background, transparent course hours and pricing, and emphasis on practical application and legal document templates. It is suitable for lawyers who are already practicing or preparing to enter this field. The limitations are that the page does not disclose certificate or accreditation information, nor does it explain learning support such as Q&A, communities, or assignment feedback. Its courses are also highly based on the Brazilian legal system, making them of limited reference value for learners outside Brazilian jurisdictions.
It is better suited to lawyers or legal professionals with strong Portuguese skills who serve Brazilian legal scenarios, especially those handling family, inheritance, alimony, and family wealth planning cases. The main text does not provide information about access from China, so this remains unknown. Even if accessible, the main learning barriers would be Portuguese language ability and the applicability of Brazilian law.
