Who We Are

A firm built as a bridge.

Corvus Legal & Advisory is an international advisory and consulting boutique operating along the EU–CPLP–UAE axis. We exist for one reason: to move companies, capital and ideas across borders with precision.

Clients do not retain us for legal opinions alone. They retain us for judgement — the ability to read a market, structure an entry and execute with the discipline of a private bank and the agility of a boutique.

“Global structure. Lusophone fluency. Not a limitation — an edge.”
Luiz Eduardo Fernandes

What We Do

Four pillars. One mandate.

A few examples of the ground we cover — every mandate is shaped around the client, not a fixed package.

L

Legal & Corporate

Company formation, international contracts, cross-border due diligence and corporate governance — engineered for founders who operate in more than one jurisdiction.

A

Advisory & Internationalisation

Market-entry strategy, strategic diagnostics, retainers and Gulf development. We map the route before you commit the capital.

C

Capital & Investment

Fundraising structuring, SPVs and access to institutional investors — connecting Lusophone opportunity with global capital.

D

Digital Law & Compliance

GDPR, the EU AI Act, NIS2, privacy and technology contracts. We read regulation as strategy — not as an obstacle.

How We Work

Method, not improvisation.

01

Diagnosis

We map your position — jurisdictions, exposure, opportunity — before recommending anything.

02

Strategy

A clear route: structure, sequence and cost. In writing.

03

Execution

Incorporation, contracts, filings, negotiation — handled end to end.

04

Ongoing Counsel

We stay at the table as your structure grows — retained counsel, not one-off advice.

Markets & Presence

One axis. Three spaces.
No borders in the way.

Corvus operates along the EU–CPLP–UAE axis: one network connecting the Lusophone world, Europe and the Gulf.

Operations

European Union

Deep roots in Portugal and full reach across the single market — formation, banking, tax framework and regulatory entry.

Origin & Network

CPLP

The Lusophone space — Brazil first, then Angola, Mozambique and beyond. Our clients' home ground, and ours.

Presence

UAE · Gulf

Presence in the Gulf's fastest-moving market: structuring, tax residency and capital access through a licensed partner network.

Contact

Complexity is the raw material.
Clarity is the product.

One conversation is enough to know whether we can help. No forms. No gatekeeping.
