Morais Leitão in the world’s best arbitration ranking

Morais Leitão, Galvão Teles, Soares da Silva & Associados [Morais Leitão] has one of the best ranked international arbitration teams in the world, being part of the prestigious GAR 100 ranking for the fifth time in a row this year. In Portugal, only two law firms currently hold that status. 
Recently, António Pinto Leite and Francisco Cortez were also recognized as Leading Individuals in the Dispute Resolution area by the Legal 500 ranking. Filipe Vaz Pinto was nominated Next Generation Lawyer by that same ranking and Future Leader – Partner by the Who’s Who Legal Arbitration ranking.
Morais Leitão’s internationalization strategy benefits from the growing prominence of our international arbitration team, solving complex cases of high importance and added value, reflected in our presence in rankings like GAR 100 and in international forums and panels. Multi-generation teams, constant modernization and unstoppable dedication were the keys to achieve those results.
This year’s GAR 100 is an indisputable example of that.
The Global Arbitration Review ranking requires a profound look at each firm’s work, being today the main reference in the international arbitration universe. To António Pinto Leite, who leads our international arbitration department, this distinction “is undoubtfully a reason for us to be proud of, due to the fact that it truly proves our commitment to keep Morais Leitão’s values of excellence in the spotlight”.
“We wouldn’t be alongside that best arbitration teams in the world without that ever-lasting commitment”, concludes the senior lawyer, who also cheered the “new generation, with well-deserved accomplishments”.
