Rooted in strong academic foundations and a modern legal culture, the firm has built a robust multidisciplinary practice. With offices in Lisbon, Porto, and Braga, our Portuguese team advises clients across key areas such as administrative, corporate, regulatory, tax, technology (TMT), dispute resolution, and data protection law.

The 2017 merger with ECIJA marked a strategic turning point, aligning the firm with one of Europe’s leading practices in technology, media, and telecommunications — a sector where ECIJA is consistently recognized by the most prestigious international legal directories.

Since then, the firm has accelerated its growth through the integration of other leading Portuguese firms: Vieira Advogados (2019), Jorge Carneiro & Associados (2021), Lencastre Advogados (2022), Rui Mesquita Associados (2024), and most recently, Cruz Vilaça Advogados (2025) — renowned for its expertise in public and EU law. These milestones have strengthened our capabilities, broadened our sector coverage, and reinforced our international reach.

Guided by principles of independence, technical excellence, and client dedication, we work in close partnership with those we advise — anticipating challenges, understanding the dynamics of the market, and delivering legal solutions that make a meaningful impact.

Today, Antas da Cunha ECIJA represents a new generation of legal advisory services in Portugal: agile, globally connected, and driven by innovation — combining deep local knowledge with the strength of an international network.
