Portuguese Will
When moving to Portugal, many expats overlook a crucial aspect of their future planning: adapting their estate plan to local laws. Without taking this step, your assets in Portugal could be distributed in ways that conflict with your wishes, leading to complications, delays, and even disputes among your loved ones.
What We Offer:
- Personalized Consultation: We’ll discuss your estate planning needs and ensure your preferences align with Portuguese law.
- Drafting an Opt-Out Will: A tailored will that incorporates your choices and complies with Portuguese regulations.
- Notary Coordination: We organize a meeting with a local notary to finalize and legalize your will.
Why Create a Portuguese Will?
Portuguese inheritance law imposes strict rules on how assets are distributed, leaving little room for personal preferences. While foreigners can choose to apply the laws of their home country, this choice must be formalized in a will signed in Portugal. Otherwise, Portuguese law will apply, potentially overriding your intentions.
Our service ensures that your wishes are respected, offering a straightforward solution to opt out of Portuguese inheritance law when possible.
