"Rute has been great to work with. Good communication, extremely diligent, and efficient. Highly recommend and would happily work with her again in the future."
Mr. Mesureur
"Rute Herdadinha is quite possibly the finest and most knowledgeable solicitor in the Algarve. She has gone above and beyond in her dealings with various entities regarding my house sale and apartment purchase.(...)"
Mrs. Fisher
"There are only positive things to report. Rute helped me to buy a house in Portugal. Since I was unable to travel there myself, she handled everything with a power of attorney. She always informed me in detail about every step and gave me a good feeling that I was in the best hands.(...)"
