Pedro Vidal MatosCuatrecasas

Counting market-leading corporates, banks and financial institutions among its key client roster, the team at Cuatrecasas is praised for its ‘deep technical knowledge of both substantial tax implications and procedural ones.’ The team is well-versed in big-ticket transactional work, as well as contentious matters at the judicial and administrative levels. Spearheading the team is Serena Cabrita Neto who stands out for her ‘great ability to find solutions to all problems’. Neto, who joined from PLMJ in July 2023, succeeds the previous practice head Pedro Vidal Matos, who is singled out for his focus on tax audits and tax litigation, representing clients both in domestic and international courts. Gonçalo Bastos Lopes is recommended for his knowledge of tax matters related to M&A, corporate restructuring, financings and capital markets deals. Ana Helena Farinha is noted for her experienced in corporate income tax, while Marta Duarte Silva focuses on private clients work, and financial and income tax.
