Anna Fedorova2024-11-27 If you're struggling with the Portuguese residency process or with getting the dreaded AIMA appointment, there is no one better and more trustworthy in the entirety of Portugal than Marcus! Throughout the whole process, he was always available and supported us with every tiny detail, saving me I don't know how many hours of work and research. His services are absolutely invaluable, but also really reasonably priced - which isn't the case with many lawyers. So if, like me, you are totally lost in Portuguese bureaucracy, do yourself a favour and just let Marcus sort it out for you. Damien De Ponte2024-11-27 Extremely helpful and efficient!
