VdA expands presence in Angola with Prime Advogados

Vieira de Almeida (VdA) has announced the expansion of its presence in Angola, with the incorporation of a newly established law firm: Prime Advogados, which will operate as part of the VdA Legal Partners network. The new Angolan law firm is the result of the merger between ASP Advogados and LEAD Advogados, and launches with a 30-person team, offering both domestic and international legal services.

According to VdA, the activity will follow a collaborative model with a global outlook, bolstered by its integration in the VdA Legal Partners network. “This move reflects confidence in the growing maturity of the Angolan legal market and a strong long-term investment in empowering future generations and building a sophisticated offering aligned with international best practices”, states VdA.

According to Paula Gomes Freire (pictured), managing partner at VdA, “this move represents an important step toward strengthening VdA Legal Partners’ connection to the Angolan market.” For Emanuela Vunge, managing partner at PRIME Advogados, “this is an innovative approach and an ambitious vision, grounded in the same rigor, proximity, and dedication as always.”
