" Filipe is an outstanding in-house counsel and a genuine pleasure to work with. He combines a highly pragmatic, business-oriented mindset with excellent legal judgment, allowing him to provide solutions that are both technically sound and commercially effective. He is extremely responsive, decisive, and approachable, which makes collaboration seamless even in complex, cross-border matters. Filipe also demonstrates a deep understanding of his sector and the legal and technical issues involved, which enables him to anticipate risks and add real strategic value. Overall, he is a trusted and highly capable legal professional. "

"I’ve had the chance to work closely with Filipe on a series of complex financial litigation mandates and restructuring matters concerning Haitong’s Polish branch, and I’ve come to value his judgement and approach very much. What stands out about him is not just his experience, but the way he stays composed even in the most demanding situations. He has a very clear sense of direction, and at the same time is open to ideas, which made the cooperation very enjoyable. Filipe also has a natural ability to build trust. You can feel you are working with someone who is very experienced and strategic, but at the same still very hands-on and reliable. "

"I had the opportunity to work with Filipe on a particularly sensitive and complex employment matter involving the dismissal of a key senior executive, which required a thorough internal investigation in France. Throughout the process, Filipe demonstrated an exceptional understanding of the regulatory and organisational environment, as well as a high sound of judgment. His ability to navigate a delicate situation with both rigour and pragmatism was instrumental in allowing us to reach a satisfactory outcome. He is a trusted and highly capable in-house counsel, and I would not hesitate to recommend him. "
