I took a chance with going to see Vivian because I am hesitant about finding someone online. But, not knowing many people in PT, and after seeing Vivian speaking confidently and concisely on YouTube links and sharing knowledge generously, I made an appointment and went to see her about my current and future residency status. Vivian is a warm and intelligent lawyer, and gave me quality time, and quickly gained an insight into what would be the best way forward for me. We have just started the process but I feel confident she knows her stuff, and has my best interests at heart, a rare quality to find in any person.

Hello my name is Randy Rava. I decided to move to Portugal 🇵🇹. I found Vivian Perfeito on internet. She is worth every penny. Vivian was there for me every step of the way. Her fees are very low, she was always there for me and she always answered my emails and gave me good direction. She is very honest and kind. She put in much more time with me and helped me in many ways. If you want to immigrate to Portugal 🇵🇹 without the help of a lawyer it would be foolish because of the many mistakes that you would make that would cost you valuable time and money. I found Vivian Perfeito and she is a blessing because she knows exactly what to do at every point in the process, her fees are very reasonable and she is very honest and reliable. Without her knowledge of Portuguese law I would have made mistake after mistake and would never have even known it. I highly recommend Vivian Perfeito Advogada extrordinare the finest most skilled lawyer in all of Portugal.
