Bernardes, Gonçalves & Associados - Sociedade de Advogados R.L.

BGA’s origins date back to May 2003, with the partnership between two of its founding associates, António Coimbra Gonçalves and Bruno Tomaz Bernardes.
 
Initially started as a de facto corporation, the company gradually earned its place in the legal panorama of the city of Oporto. Much of its success was due to the availability, technical rigour and sense of responsibility it always provided its clients.
 
Consequently, in April 2008, the law firm Bernardes, Gonçalves & Associados – Sociedade de Advogados RL was set up as a de jure corporation, strengthening its position on the Oporto market and taking on new employees who share the same philosophy.
 
BGA promotes integrity, respect, equity and transparency in the firm conviction that the interests of both the company and its clients are thus safeguarded in all its fields of activity.
 
Furthermore, the firm believes in dealing with its employees, clients and legal officers in a cordial, honest, trustworthy and responsible manner.
 
BGA’s work is based upon loyalty, independence, impartiality, confidentiality and technical rigour to the highest standards of deontological ethics.
