EMEL faces legal action and may have to return fines to thousands of drivers: find out if it's your case

A law firm is preparing a legal action against EMEL (Empresa Municipal de Mobilidade e Estacionamento de Lisboa - Lisbon Municipal Parking and Mobility Company) that could lead to the return of fines and other amounts paid by thousands of drivers. The action, which is expected to be filed in administrative courts in September, challenges alleged irregularities in parking enforcement, the handling of defenses presented by drivers, and the collection of cases considered time-barred. The law firm Carlos Barroso & Associados currently handles more than a thousand traffic violation cases, many of them related to vehicles that were clamped or towed. Between 2020 and 2024, more than 1.13 million traffic violation notices were issued, with fine payments amounting to approximately 37.7 million euros. EMEL rejects the accusations, claiming it acts within its legal competencies delegated by the Lisbon City Council, and guarantees it will comply with any court decision.
