We highlight some testimonies of our Clients:

Telles is a unique law firm in the context of the Portuguese market, especially due to the balance it has between the virtues of a large firm (level and transversality of knowledge, professionalism, compliance, networking, etc.) and those of a small firm (personalised service, availability, flexibility, availability, etc.). I would like to highlight Telles' ability and speed to adapt to remote work in the face of adversity caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, which did not negatively affect Telles' performance and delivery.'

Very good knowledge of our company, sector, global market. Very good availability. Clear formalized opinion that protects the interest of the company but at the same time adapted to our operational constraints.'

The directory reinforces the positioning of TELLES that in the last 30 years has stood out for the provision of legal services of excellence and added value, transversal to the areas of practice of the firm, provided by the 120 lawyers that make up the TELLES team.
