Abreu Advogados has reinforced its Financial Law team, with an emphasis on the Insurance and Aviation sectors, with the integration of the professional partner Nuno Luís Sapateiro (picture), as part of its growth strategy.
With over fifteen years of experience and professional background with several international distinctions in the Insurance and Aviation sectors, Nuno Luís Sapateiro has provided strategic counsel to numerous large national and international transactions, involving some of the most important Insurers and Airline companies. He is also co-coordinator of the Insurtech working group of AFIP – Associação FinTech e InsurTech Portugal.
“Nuno Luís Sapateiro’s integration is strategic for us in several aspects and reflects our commitment to the future, both of Abreu and of the economy, because, on the one side, we renew our commitment with the most promising talents of the future of business law, and on the other side, we reinforce our strength in two sectors that need to reinvent themselves in the aftermath of the pandemic: Insurance and Aviation. Nuno’s experience and professional background, considered one of the best in his expertise areas, are a great asset to our project and to our clients,” said Inês Sequeira Mendes, managing partner of Abreu Advogados.
“Besides being one of the leading independent law firms in Portugal, Abreu Advogados has a very unique work culture and a differentiating purpose that goes beyond legal services and integrates an important humanistic aspect. These are features I identified with, and, therefore, it is with great satisfaction that I begin this new challenge,” said Nuno Sapateiro. “The pandemic taught us that companies’ growth is now increasingly linked with their ability to reinvent themselves and face the challenges with an important portion of resiliency and strength. I will continue to work daily to help all clients design their future,” he concludes.
Nuno Luís Sapateiro has a post-graduate degree in Insurance Law from the Universidade de Lisboa and from the Portuguese Section of the International Association of Insurance Law.
