The July/ August edition of European Lawyer included its now regular analysis of independent law firms.
João Vieira de Almeida, Managing Partner, was quoted in connection with VdA and its reputation as an independent law firm of reference.

"You cannot assert you are best in everything, as no one will believe that. Among the top firms we are all high quality"
What makes us different to other Portuguese firms is our culture and our growth model. We are pure lockstep, not' eat what you kill. This means we have a contrasting approach to offer clients because we will allocate the best person for the job."
