By leveraging a multidisciplinary approach that integrates real estate, corporate, and tax law, I deliver strategic, commercially focused advice tailored to each client’s unique objectives. 

My practice covers the entire real estate lifecycle - from acquisition and due diligence to licensing, development, leasing, and disposal - enabling me to guide investors and developers through every stage of their projects with legal rigour and commercial insight. 

Early in my career, I built a solid foundation at a boutique law firm across real estate, construction, rental, corporate, tax, and litigation, before specialising in immigration and investment law, advising international clients entering the Portuguese market through residency-by-investment schemes. 

This role deepened my understanding of investment vehicles and foreign capital flows into the national real estate sector. Today, I support a diverse client base - including institutional investors, developers, and high-net-worth individuals - combining legal expertise with a practical, business-oriented mindset. 

With a particular interest in sustainable urban development, committed to delivering innovative legal solutions aligned with evolving market demands and regulatory frameworks. 

I hold an LL.M. in International Commercial Law, enhancing my ability to manage complex, cross-border transactions and provide integrated legal strategies in multi-jurisdictional contexts.
