Teresa, Lawyer in Faro ...
Teresa read law at the University of Coimbra. She is specialised in civil law, contracts, property and inheritance case, with more than 10 years representing international clients. She holds a postgraduate degree in Banking, Stock Exchange and Insurance Law and also holds the specialization course leading to the degree of Master of Corporate Law. A well-known speaker, Teresa's research focuses on issues of economic and financial law, as well as fundamental rights. She speaks English fluently.
Apologies for the delay in responding to this email. We were in the midst of repairs and preparing to return to the U.S. and I did not take note of receiving this email. We can only speak with high praises for the work Teresa provided us through the process of correcting documents which were previously poorly or incorrectly completed and for guiding us through the remainder of a CPCV process which required legal support to obtain titles and registrations in a timely manner to allow us to proceed with the purchase of an intended property. Had we not sought out legal services, we would have had a cumbersome process of trying to navigate the Portuguese system to obtain the needed land documents. I have had conversations with individuals who are in the process of considering transitions to Portugal and advise them to seek out legal services from the onset, rather than in the midst of finding themselves in a difficult situation. Teresa and Tatiana have been prompt and thorough in providing responses and services as needed. With Teresa's assistance we now have our estate planning in place and feel confident our children will be in good hands should they need to sell our property at any given time. Again, we feel so fortunate to have had the excellent support and services from Teresa and Tatiana. We have been able to feel comfortable and confident in the decisions made. Kenneth and Victoria

Elsa was great - professional, responsive and very helpful. She went above and beyond our initial request for a banking POA by including other general powers which we did not think of initially but made a lot of sense to do. Muito obrigada Elsa!
