What C&C Lawyers and Notaries does

C&C Lawyers and Notaries (legal name: C&C – Law Offices Management Company Limited) is a private, full-service law firm headquartered in Macau SAR at Avenida da Praia Grande 759, founded in February 1996 by Rui José da Cunha and António Correia together with Nuno Sardinha da Mata and Carlos Duque Simões. The firm employs approximately 43 professional staff including 30+ lawyers, notaries, trainees, and associates, supported by over 40 additional staff, with a multilingual team covering Portuguese, English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Spanish, French, and Italian. It is one of the largest and oldest structured law firms in Macau.

C&C delivers a complete legal practice spanning litigation and dispute resolution, corporate and commercial law, notary and conveyance, gaming law, insurance law, real estate and construction, criminal law, probate/estate and family law, banking, finance and capital markets, employment and immigration, administrative and public law, and intellectual property and IT — the latter supported by a dedicated IP subsidiary (IPSOL). Ancillary wholly-owned subsidiaries (C&C Consultores, C&C Business Consultants Hengqin, C&C Corporate Services, C&C Translation Centre, C&C Multimedia) provide corporate consulting, secretarial, translation, and multimedia services, allowing the firm to offer clients an integrated cross-border services platform.

Revenue is generated through professional legal service fees structured as hourly billing, fixed fees per matter, or monthly/annual retainers, with no public pricing disclosed. The go-to-market is partner-led, direct enterprise client engagement serving large multinationals, listed companies, gaming operators, financial institutions, and high-net-worth individuals across Macau, Greater China (Zhuhai, Shanghai, Qingdao, Hengqin, Shenzhen/Futian), Portugal, Timor-Leste, and Cape Verde — the latter geographies accessed through formal cooperation agreements with Abreu Advogados, AllBright Law Offices, Guangdong Sunny Law P.S., Dentons Zhuhai, AllBright Qingdao, and WinGlobal.
