VFA opens in Porto and welcomes new partner
Valério, Figueiredo & Associados (VFA) has just reinforced its presence in Northern Portugal by opening a new office in Porto. The VFA office in the “Invicta city” will be led by lawyer Carlos Vasconcelos, who is now joining the firm as a partner. The new office will operate as a full-service firm, with a special focus on health law, encompassing public health, medical law, and healthcare provision.
In addition, VFA Porto will provide advisory services across a wide range of areas, leveraging the integrated work of the firm’s departments and a network of offices that, alongside Lisbon and Coimbra, now covers the entire country.
