International Legal Counsel for Mobility, Residency & Citizenship

I advise international individuals, families, entrepreneurs and investors on legal matters connected to immigration, residency, citizenship, investment, business and cross-border mobility.

Licensed to practise law in both Brazil and Portugal, I provide direct legal assistance in these two jurisdictions and personally handle each engagement from the initial legal assessment through the implementation of the agreed strategy.

My practice is primarily focused on helping foreign clients establish legal residence, investments and long-term ties in Brazil and Portugal, while selected matters involving other jurisdictions may be coordinated through trusted local legal and professional partners.

Consultations available in English, Portuguese and Spanish.

My Commitment

Local Knowledge. International Perspective.

Working with clients across different countries requires more than understanding immigration rules. It means recognizing the practical challenges of dealing with foreign documents, public authorities, deadlines, investments and legal procedures across different legal systems.

My role is to make these processes more understandable and manageable, combining direct legal assistance in Brazil and Portugal with clear communication and a practical approach to each client’s objectives.

Many of the clients I assist are planning a move, managing legal matters while living abroad or evaluating more than one jurisdiction as part of a broader mobility strategy. For that reason, I place particular importance on explaining each stage clearly, identifying potential issues early and maintaining direct communication throughout the engagement.
