ForIndividuals

There are moments when a lawyer is needed, even by those who never thought they would need one: an inheritance, a divorce, the protection of a family member who can no longer make decisions alone, a residence permit, a problem with a purchase. We explain clearly what is at stake, prepare the documents and stay with you at every step, with the discretion these matters call for.

  • Adult support measures (maior acompanhado)
  • Advance healthcare directives, healthcare powers of attorney and other powers of attorney
