How local support works
Our partner lawyers work in coordination with Sene & Araújo, which remains your point of contact and coordinates your matter. Local support is used, for example, to attend in-person appointments in the region, hand in or collect documents, and check on the progress of an application.
Whichever office or city you are closest to, Sene & Araújo is always your point of contact. The first step is a conversation, in person by appointment or by video call, to understand your situation and list the documents needed. From there, the team handles the steps in Brazil and in Portugal and keeps you informed at every stage.
Northern Portugal
Porto is the main city in the north of the country, and many Brazilians live in the city and in neighbouring municipalities such as Vila Nova de Gaia, Matosinhos or Maia, or further north in Braga. For people living in the region, local support helps when an in-person step is needed or an application has to be followed closely. See citizenship step by step and residence permit.
Our other locations
Our own offices are in Albufeira, in the Algarve, and in São Paulo. In the Lisbon and Cascais area, two other partner lawyers provide local support.
