What Our Clients Say

"I was very pleased with the services run by Mrs. Monteiro with the assistance of lawyers in Portugal and junior legal assistants in The Netherlands. I required help with a legalisation procedure which had been unsuccessfully attempted by lawyers elsewhere. Despite the problems of Covid-19 the work was efficiently and professionally completed."

Esther Liska, Client

"I have had the pleasure to hire Marisa in a strenuous situation of conflict management resolution. Marisa just came in as a breath of fresh air, with her positive attitude and assertiveness, she was able to succeed where all others (mediators and lawyers) before her have failed. She is an inspiring human being and a unusually skillful professional, who is able to bring fresh new ideas and perspective to the table, who also goes the extra mile to help and support her clients. I would recommend Marisa as legal advisor and/or for legal representation in a heart beat."
