The risk society, typical of our time, brings new issues to professionals who work in the medical field, especially to those practicing medicine.

Medical law is a recent field but is evolving quickly. Focusing in this reality, António Vilar, Luís Cameirão & Associados Law Office offers specialized support, namely in the field of:

- Civil and criminal liability of doctors;
- Civil liability of health centres;
- Civil liability insurance concerning injuries or damages caused when practicing medicine.
