Back

We advise on Portuguese and international transactions in the areas of fossil and renewable energy, and on onshore and offshore oil projects. Our team also advises on wind, solar, biomass and biofuels projects and, in general, on upstream and downstream energy infrastructures projects.

We have gained great experience from regularly advising Portuguese and foreign companies in this sector. Our clients include investors and finance providers, promoters, governments and regulators, technology and equipment suppliers who demand lawyers with international expertise in these matters.

PLMJ keeps up to date with the growing liberalisation and fast pace of technological development in this sector so we can provide the best legal support in these areas. Our team also provides day-to-day regulatory and corporate support and advice on mergers and acquisitions.

Everything we do focuses on the clients’ specific needs and on protecting their interests.
