Thank you very much for clicking on my profile. My name is Carlos Pinto and I have over 20 years of experience practicing law in Angola, both in in-house counsel positions and through my Luanda-based law firm, P&P Advogados. I served as in-housel legal counsel for one of the largest international oil companies with a market leading presence in Angola where I gained experience in the various facets of the oil & gas industry, contract models and the management of complex projects. Afterwards, I headed the legal department of the Angolan Ministry of Finance which fostered my interest in taxation and fiscal policy. My exposure to the corporate world was expanded while I served as director (with the legal portfolio) of the national oil company of Angola. At my firm, P&P Advogados, I mostly advise international and domestic corporate clients in corporate, commercial, private investment, tax and other areas.
I believe that a strong academic background goes a long way to shaping a knowledgeable and proficient lawyer, so I have invested significantly in my legal training. I have a Masters degree in Commercial Law from the Coimbra Law School in Portugal and the Agostinho Neto University in Angola. I am also completing my Ph.D. in Law program and preparing my thesis in Oil & Gas law. I have authored several articles and studies on various topics of law.
Advised leading Angolan bank on the local implementation of an international financing facility
Advised group of international investors in the feasibility study, construction and operation of hotel in Luanda
Assisted Angolan telecom operator in the installation of network of 300 plus antennas and other equipment
When he is not in this law office, Carlos can often be found in a tennis court where he can be a fierce competitor but with enough flair and fair play! At a more relaxing level, Carlos loves to do long walks and explore hidden spots in nature setting or in historical cities.
