Local and International
Since 1976, when Vasco Vieira de Almeida founded a small law office, up to the present day, our founding partner's unbending ethics and high professional standards are lived on a day to day basis by all of VdA's 200 plus staff. We are proud of the place we have reached at the top of legal advising in the country with the support of our team, made up of some of the best specialists in each area of business.
Tradition and Innovation
The tradition of the name we carry makes us all the more innovative. Since the firm's first steps innovation has been a stepping stone for our growth. We have led some of the most pioneering transactions to take place in the financial and infrastructural sectors in the last decades.
We foster dialog between different generations and promote the discussion of different viewpoints. At VdA senior partners and junior associates coming from some of the most prestigious national and international schools mingle, discuss and develop together creative legal solutions for complex issues.
