IT & TELECOMMUNICATIONS LAW

The pace of growth in this area has had a strong impact on the work carried out by PLMJ and in the specialisation and skill sets of our lawyers.

PLMJ provides a full range of legal advice to companies, operators and investors engaged in the communications resources sector and the telecommunications sector, which enables them to benefit from an across-the-board approach to the applicable legislative and regulatory provisions and to foresee prospective changes.

Our work has particularly involved negotiating concession and supply contracts as well as regulatory matters and various other aspects related to the business activity of national and international market operators. We have helped various international operators set up in Portugal.

PLMJ has built up a significant practice in the field of information technology. Our work includes traditional software licensing as well as matters related to internet selling, IT crimes, data protection and domain names. We represent national and international software agents and companies and provide legal assistance to regular clients whenever information and telecommunications technologies are at issue.
