As of June, the Angolan legal market welcomed a new firm, PRIME Advogados.

PRIME Advogados is the result of the combination of two leading firms, ASP Advogados and LEAD Advogados, with the ambition of becoming the top choice for national and international clients with investments in the country, as well as for lawyers, law students and other legal professionals.

Bringing together excellence and in-depth knowledge of the local market from the firms it replaces, as well as an unwavering commitment to the highest ethical and professional standards, PRIME Advogados comprises a team of 30 people, highly qualified and experienced in national and international legal advice.

This move reflects confidence in the growing maturity of the Angolan legal market and a strong long-term commitment with training future generations and creating a sophisticated offer in line with the best international standards.

The activity will be developed through a collaborative approach and global perspective, enhanced by integration into the VdA Legal Partners network.

According to Paula Gomes Freire, Managing Partner at VdA, “this move represents an important step towards strengthening VdA Legal Partners’ ties with the Angolan market”.

For Emanuela Vunge, Managing Partner of PRIME Advogados, ‘this is an innovative approach and an ambitious vision, based on the rigour, proximity and dedication we have always shown’.
