TELLES attracts considerable praise for its ‘client-centric approach’ and ‘specialised knowledge’. The team possesses notable strength in handling the tax aspects of corporate restructurings, M&A, private equity deals and debt workouts. Noted for his extensive experience in tax litigation and tax advisory matters, practice head Miguel Torres is retained by both domestic and international clients, including banking and financial institutions. João Luís Araújo is the name to note for private clients and wealth management mandates. André Gonçalves and Abílio Rodrigues, who caters to clients operating in the private equity, heavy manufacturing, construction, real estate, and infrastructure sectors, focus on non-contentious tax issues. The team has been strengthened by the arrival of José Maria Cabral Sacadura from Linklaters in April 2023; he brings a wealth of experience in transactional, litigation and assets restructuring matters. João Magalhães Ramalho left the firm in February 2024.
