Family Law

We assist with family businesses, divorce, inheritance tax, marriage (pre-nuptial agreements), wills and succession.

Portuguese wills

A Portuguese will is made before a notary, with two witnesses and, where necessary, a translator. Having a Portuguese will covering your Portuguese assets greatly simplifies the succession process for your heirs.

The inventory process

  • Identification of the heirs and the deceased's assets
  • Valuation of the estate
  • Settlement of inheritance tax (stamp duty) where applicable
  • Partition and registration of assets in the heirs' names
