LCF – Legal Counsel Firm/ Lourdes Caposso Fernandes & Associados was founded by Mrs. Lourdes Caposso Fernandes and incorporated with patriotic premises with a mission to contribute towards the development of Angola by valuing Angolan Human Capital, enhancing ethical values and ensure the Sustainable Development of Angola.
At present there are insufficient law firms in Angola that adhere to the principles and work ethic of international law firms. In this light, LCF Legal Counsel Firm has ensured that several of its professionals receive international training in various areas of study including ethics and compliance.
Angola is a country rich in mineral resources and it is experiencing an unprecedented influx of business. In such an unpredictable market, high risk business conduct is thus minimized when co-opting the services of dependable local legal counsel.
LCF Legal Counsel Firm is comprised of 37 employees that include three international staff. The law firm is divided into 5 departments under which, legal services pertaining to the following matters are provided: Energy, Natural Resources and Oil and Gas Law, Commercial Law, Banking, Asset Recovery, Litigation, Real estate and communications law and Criminal law.
