Tourism
As the country’s a key industry in the country, Tourism has kept its weight as a major contributor to the Portuguese economy; assets in the sector continue to attract investors from international markets all over the world.
Traditional forms of tourism still thrive, namely resorts and projects connected to the sea and sun, but also in new ventures ranging from cultural and sporting activities to urban, ecological and business tourism.
Our practice is comprised of a team of lawyers, fully dedicated to Tourism. We draw upon lawyers specialized in other sectors, whenever the project so requires, in a fully integrated and comprehensive fashion. The firm advises lenders, investors, developers, owners and also planning and licensing public entities in projects such as hotels, resorts, golf courses, eco-resorts, rural hotels and marinas.
