Pinto Ribeiro Advogados has confirmed the commitment with its team announcing the promotion of two new partners – Marcos Sousa Guedes and Nuno Lucas

pjimage 70Marcos Sousa Guedes (pictured left) has been at Pinto Ribeiro Advogados since 1999 (at the time still J.A. Pinto Ribeiro) and coordinates the Banking and Finance department. He is responsible for providing Legal advice to some of the most high profile national and international banking institutions and financial companies. He has extensive experience in the areas of Compliance, Regulation and Banking and Financial Supervision, Structured Finance Operations, Venture Capital and Project Finance.

Nuno Lucas (pictured right) has been at Pinto Ribeiro Advogados since 2008 (at the time still J.A. Pinto Ribeiro) and is the Coordinator of the Litigation department, handling matters related to Civil and Commercial Litigation. He has experience advising institutional and private clients in the mentioned areas, as well as extensive know-how in advising institutional clients in Banking and Financial Law.

João André Antunes, managing partner at Pinto Ribeiro Advogados said: “The invitation to Marcos Sousa Guedes and Nuno Lucas, especially after a year as challenging as the year 2020 was, underlies the importance of growth in the firm and in the guarantee of the high quality of services provided by our office, while reflects the preponderance of individual merit and team spirit as structural values of our organisation.” João André Antunes also stated: “A law firm’s greatest asset is its people, its team and, in this sense, it is essential that all our professionals know, regardless of their seniority, that talent and merit are valued and that here they find the space they need to build their career and achieve their goals. Marcos and Nuno are a clear example of this, and for that reason, it is a great honour for us to be able to count on both of them in our partner structure.”

With this latest round of promotions, Pinto Ribeiro Advogados now has five partners and 30 lawyers.
