Rafhael Romero Bentos is Co-Chair of the IBA’s LGBTQI+ Committee

Loria Advogados will be represented by senior associate Rafhael Romero Bentos at the 2026 Annual Conference of the International Bar Association (IBA), one of the most important gatherings in the global legal community.

Rafhael will chair the panel featuring Leo Varadkar, former Prime Minister of Ireland (Taoiseach). As the country’s first openly gay head of government and one of Europe’s most influential political voices on issues of inclusion, Varadkar led Ireland through a period of profound social and institutional change.

The panel, titled “The Future of LGBTQI+ Rights in a Changing World,” will examine contemporary challenges and pathways for advancing and protecting LGBTQI+ rights on the international stage.
