We are glad to disclose the publication of our 2010 Pro Bono report. At Vieira de Almeida & Associados (VdA) we are proud to have been the first major Portuguese independent firm to have created a Pro Bono and Corporate Social Responsibility Programme (CSR). In 2010 we supported 44 charity institutions providing social work in the most varied fields. This means that our lawyers dedicated 2% of all of the firm's billable hours to Pro Bono work.

"One of the most important prerequisites in order to be a true lawyer is to be able to understand our role in the community. This means the acute awareness of our added duties as citizens". At VdA we strive to carry out our founding partner, Vasco Vieira de Almeida's convictions.
