The 7th edition of the event Rock’n’Law took place on July 2, in Lisbon, at the venue LX Factory. This unique and innovative initiative, which was started in 2009, brings together business law firms to support a social solidarity project. In total, 14 law firms put forward bands or DJs who each year promote a rock concert in support of a cause.

This year the event brought together 1,850 people - even more than in previous years - who got to see nine bands, and continued to party until late, with special appearances by Portuguese singers Luís Represas and Camané.

The initiative raised €114,000, of which €70,000 will be donated to the organization AMCV – Associação de Mulheres contra a Violência (Association of Women Against Violence), and which will be used in the rehabilitation of the organisation’s Anti-Violence Centre and of its two shelters, facilities that are essential for carrying out the Association’s activities, and which have already welcomed 359 women and 416 children at risk.
