Spanish-speaking lawyers in Portugal

Spanish companies, Latin American residents and families with a home on each side of the border form a steady Spanish-speaking presence in Portugal. Spanish-speaking lawyers in Portugal serve them in a language they know well.

Frequent matters are company formation and contracts with Spanish partners, buying property, residence for Venezuelan or Brazilian families, cross-border inheritance between Spain and Portugal under the EU Succession Regulation, divorce with assets in both countries, and employment disputes. Portuguese advogados belong to the Ordem dos Advogados, whose register is public. Proceedings are in Portuguese, so Spanish documents need certified translation, though many officials read Spanish. Some firms also hold Spanish bar membership for cross-border work.

Fees are agreed in advance, often as a fixed price. Spanish-speaking lawyers in Portugal are found in Lisbon, Porto and towns near the border. Ask Spanish-speaking lawyers in Portugal whether they also work with Spanish colleagues. Compare the firms below and contact them directly.
