We advise clients on all aspects of insurance activity. This covers regulatory and supervisory matters, issues relating to insurance and reinsurance products, distribution contracts, cross-border activities, taxation, mergers and acquisitions, pension funds, transfers of portfolios, and litigation among others.

We provide legal assistance to the different players in the insurance industry, including insurers, reinsurers and pension fund management companies.

We have a team of experts, which allow us to advise on the process of designing insurance and reinsurance products, and on transfers of portfolios of life and non-life insurance. They also provide support in cross-border restructuring and mergers of insurers, and in assisting industry players with their internationalisation processes. Bringing PLMJ lawyers specialising in diverse areas together in a single multidisciplinary team translates into a service with the quality, depth and scope our clients demand.

We act for some of the major insurers and reinsurers, pension fund management companies and insurance distributors, including bancassurance channels. Our team provides support to these clients in their operations in Portugal, and in their internationalisation processes and cross-border activities.
