CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
Property & Short-Term Rental support in Portugal
‘Pedro Martins is an excellent solicitor. When I arrived in Portugal he arranged NIF for me and my partner. He arranged all documents needed to purchase my dream house in Sagres. I didn’t even have to be present at the deed - I gave him a power of attorney and he signed the deed in my name, when I went abroad. He also quicky organised water and electricity contracts as well as an AL license so I was able to rent rooms straight away. Now Pedro is helping me with my Portuguese driving license. I am so extremely grateful. He is quick, efficient, professional and it’s great to know there is someone so trusted that is able to seamlessly help me with transition to living in Portugal. I am so happy I have found him, I can’t recommend his services enough!’
