For the past quarter century, antitrust partner Luís Pais Antunes brought his experience from Brussels, Luxembourg, and Portugal’s Parliament house to PLMJ. After serving the past eight years as managing and co-managing partner, he stepped down at the end of 2022 in accordance with the firm’s rule that partners must leave at the end of the calendar year in which they turn 65 years old.
A young lawyer in 1986, Pais Antunes followed Portuguese accession into the European Union to work for the European Commission in Brussels. He then took his knowledge of antitrust law to Luxembourg’s Court of Justice, where he installed a new court (the General Court) before returning to Portugal in 1994 as the directorate-general for competition, preparing the creation of an independent competition body.
