Giambrone & Partners opens a new office in Porto, Portugal as part of an exponential Expansion Programme

As part of Giambrone & Partners' ongoing development programme, we are delighted to announce that we have opened an office in Oporto, Portugal.

Gabriele Giambrone, founder and global managing partner at Giambrone & Partners commented: “I am extremely proud to announce the opening of the office in Portugal as part of our ambitious expansion plan aimed at offering our international clients an ever-widening range of legal services. Giambrone & Partners aims to build a sound legal platform offering comprehensive legal assistance across Europe whilst also extending our reach into Africa.”

The recent growth of commercial globalisation drives the demand for cross-border legal advice and representation in international courts such as The Hague is commonplace. Our clients need guidance and expertise across many jurisdictions to tackle their cross-border commercial transactions.

Mário Pinheiro Torres who is an Advogado and partner will be working in the Porto office. Mário focuses on private client matters and has a broad range of experience in private client law including divorce and family law, immigration, real estate, employment, criminal defence, inheritance and probate. Mário is also a highly regarded Arbitrator and is skilled in navigating complicated matters and noted for negotiating beneficial solutions for all parties in a dispute.  Mario has been appointed as an Arbitrator in several Chambers of Commerce.

The Porto team will be supported by Gonzalo Butori, a senior associate based between the offices in London and Barcelona.  He has global expertise involving contentious and non-contentious matters.

Gonzalo commented “I am delighted to lead Giambrone & Partners new initiative in Portugal as well as the venture into Africa, which will add to the firm’s extensive international footprint. It is always exciting to develop a profile in a new arena. I am looking forward to working closely with Mario”
