Our Law Firm has brought a group of lawyers dedicated to issues related to the sectors of telecommunications, media and technology (TMT) together in a single team. This team puts us in the perfect position to take an integrated approach to these issues and this enables us to bring added quality to the services we provide to our clients.
Our Team have extensive and widely recognized experience in providing legal advice to companies, operators and investors from the telecommunications, media and technology sectors, both in Portugal and internationally. This advice covers areas ranging from regulation of electronic communication, television and social communication and the acquisition and licensing of software to e-commerce, data protection, supply of hardware, outsourcing of IT systems and electronic signatures.

Its work alongside the TMT practice enables us to provide a response to the increasing number of challenges being faced in the areas of protection of intellectual property rights in connection with new information and communication technology.
