When Cross-Border Disputes

WHO WE ARE

A firm built around cross-border complexity.

VLO Law Firm was founded in 2011 in Lisbon to fill a gap traditional regional firms could not — coherent, senior-led representation across multiple jurisdictions in a single mandate. Today we work across Europe, MENA, and the Americas with a network of vetted local counsel and a core team of senior practitioners.
