CCA Law Firm Partner, Filipe Mayer, speaking to Iberian Lawyer, commented on the growing demand for highly-specialized lawyers responding to the rapidly evolving technology, media and telecommunications (TMT) sector, in particular, the sub-sectors of this area whose level of complexity has been increasing, "we are talking, for example, about 5G and personal data, which gained momentum with the publication of national legislation implementing the General Data Protection Regulation", said the Partner.
In Portugal, two of the areas in which lawyers rely on ultra-specialization are online gambling and sports. As Filipe Mayer puts it "the constant discovery of new areas, with new topics, where specialization is a necessity, is where the best opportunities are found".
