Jessica Capor | TV1 Group | Legal and Compliance Director

Jessica’s professional journey is marked by resilience, intentionality, and a steadfast dedication to ethics. With over 15 years in the legal field, she has risen through the ranks of law firmand major corporations in the retail and industrial sectors, building a career that blends legal precision with strategic vision.

“I built my career step by step,” she reflects, “climbing each rung with confidence, responsibility, and an unwavering commitment to professional ethics.” Her legal education and postgraduate degrees in compliance and corporate law from Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) prepared her for the complexity of today’s legal challenges.

Jessica has excelled in civil, regulatory, advisory and litigation law. She developed a reputation for delivering detailed legal opinions and actionable advice—even in high-stakes or ambiguous scenarios.

“My goal has always been to offer effective and strategic legal solutions that align with business goals,” she explains.

This multi-dimensional experience gave her the foundation to lead legal departments with a 360-degree view—one that balances law and compliance with innovation. Her track record shows a mastery of the law and a deep understanding of how legal strategy supports business agility and growth.

Pioneering legal innovation in a digital world

At TV1 Group, Capor’s role is expansive and future-focused. She leads the company’s legal management, compliance, and LGPD (Brazil’s General Data Protection Law) efforts, with responsibilities that span from negotiating contracts to steering litigation strategies. Yet, her influence goes far beyond traditional legal functions.

“I support decision-making by ensuring that business strategies are executed with legal and compliance security,” she explains. Her work is instrumental in safeguarding the company as it delivers bold, tech-forward marketing campaigns that often push the limits of creativity and data use.

Capor’s most impactful achievement to date has been the creation of a robust, digital-first legal infrastructure.

“Structuring and implementing a process for contract management and LGPD compliance significantly reduced legal and financial risks,” she shares. “It also fostered greater integration between legal and business areas and enhanced our reputation for governance and excellence.”

Her current focus is on deepening this transformation through strategic initiatives. One of the key efforts underway is the digitalization of legal processes. Jessica is leading the rollout of an integrated platform designed to automate and centralize the management of contracts, NDAs, and regulatory documents. This system enhances business security and streamlines workflows across departments—from procurement to project execution and payment.

At the same time, she is advancing smart LGPD compliance by leveraging cutting-edge technological tools to monitor, store, and safeguard personal data following the highest privacy and regulatory standards. This ensures that data protection is a legal obligation and a core pillar of the company’s operations.

Jessica also plays a pivotal role in supporting disruptive innovation. She works to ensure that bold, tech-driven initiatives—such as those involving artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and digital twins—are developed within a strong legal framework. By embedding compliance into the foundation of these projects, she enables TV1 to deliver immersive, next-generation brand experiences without compromising legal integrity or agility.

“Digital transformation is essential—not just to increase efficiency but to reduce risk in a constantly evolving landscape,” she notes. “Legal must be at the forefront, anticipating challenges and enabling innovation safely.”

Her leadership is transforming the legal function from a reactive support area into a strategic driver of innovation and growth. “By integrating technology into compliance, we’re turning legal governance into a competitive advantage,” she says.

A human-centered approach to leadership

Jessica is not only a forward-thinking legal strategist but also a passionate leader who values empathy and connection. At the core of her management philosophy is the belief in humanized leadership.

“I believe in transparency, clear communication, and individualized development plans,” she says. “It’s not enough to have a high-performing team—we need to foster continuous development and a sense of purpose.”

She is deeply invested in mentoring her team, encouraging both technical excellence and cultivating soft skills like communication and emotional intelligence. Her efforts have helped build a capable, collaborative and agile legal team at TV1 that aligns deeply with the company’s mission.

One of her most impactful contributions has been her ability to break down silos between departments. Jessica has positioned the legal team as an essential strategic partner by forging closer relationships with marketing, tech, and operations.

“My proximity to business areas allows me to translate technological challenges into strategic opportunities,” she says. “That’s what helps us move faster, with confidence.”

She’s also implementing new tools—like AI-driven compliance systems and predictive risk analysis platforms—to empower faster, smarter decisions.

“It’s about creating smarter processes,” she says. “Ones that allow the business to scale, innovate, and stay protected.”

Living with balance, leading with vision

Despite her demanding role, Jessica prioritizes wellness and balance in her personal life.

“To stay grounded, I need time to reset,” she says. Her routine includes Muay Thai, therapy, and outdoor walks with her husband and their three dogs. “Self-care helps me be more present at work and in life.”

She’s intentional about carving out time for hobbies and relaxation, from travel to movies to simply enjoying a quiet evening. It’s important to recharge, she emphasizes.

“I believe that by caring for myself, I can be more balanced and better at everything I do,” she explains.

Looking ahead, Jessica’s five-year vision is ambitious yet grounded.

“I see myself in a broader, strategic leadership role—working on complex legal challenges, leading large teams, and driving innovation at scale,” she shares. Her plan includes pursuing additional certifications in areas like M&A, corporate governance, and legal tech and growing her network across industries.

For Jessica, the intersection of law, innovation, and leadership is where she thrives. At TV1 Group, she’s not just keeping up with transformation—she’s leading it. With vision, purpose, and humanity, she’s redefining what it means to be a modern legal executive in a fast-changing world.

Testimonials

The piece highlighting my company, Bob Baker Enterprises, Inc., came out fabulous. Our company is in the new and used car sales and service industry. Everyone was great to work with and extremely professional. They produced a high-quality product and have provided expert assistance and guidance post-production of the article.

I was honored to be the subject of an article. I enjoy reading Vanguard articles and seeing how other attorneys got to their positions and see their jobs. It's also interesting to see how different law firms partner with the subjects of the articles.
– Henry Marquard, in-house counsel, Stanley Consultants Inc.
It was a great honor to be featured in Vanguard Law. Working with every member of the team, from the initial interview with Erin Clark, through production with Victor Martins, writing the article with Taryn Plumb and creating the final content with Dave Gushee, was a true pleasure. Everyone was very professional, enthusiastic and supportive, and their creative approach and positive attitude clearly came through in the final product.
– Kevin C. Rakowski, Senior Vice President, Deputy General Counsel, Compliance with Radian Group Inc.
As promised in advance, my feature in Vanguard has increased my visibility within the profession and prompted more than a few people I have not communicated with recently to reconnect. One of the Italian law firms I have used in the past is now in the process of interviewing me for an article on their website and tweeting out the feature story. Activity and the number of people connecting with me on LinkedIn has soared, which is great. The Vanguard writers and editorial staff were great to work with—highly professional and made the effort to make the experience both fun and rewarding (they were also respectful of the time pressures and demands all lawyers face). I was very pleased with the experience and the final outcome. Needless to say, I have been very pleased. All in all working with Vanguard has been a very positive experience which generated good publicity for both Shawcor and myself. My sincere thanks.
– Tim Hutzul, General Counsel, ShawCor Ltd.
