About Us

Teresa Silva Tavares, lawyer registered with the Bar Association since October 1996.

Partner of the law firm Rogério Alves & Associados, in Lisbon, integrated in the area of ​​litigation and arbitration, working in the field of Family and Succession Law.

He has had a professional career, in recent years, focusing on the area of ​​Family and Succession Law, nationally and internationally, with numerous interventions in processes, such as divorces, regulations of parental responsibilities, wills, interdictions, disqualifications, prenuptial agreements, sharing, changes in parental responsibilities, failure to pay child support, suspensions and inhibitions of parental responsibilities, relocation of minors abroad, international abductions, etc.

The practice allowed her to understand that, in her intervention as a lawyer, in addition to the legal approach, there is a very important human component, due to the consequences it has on people's lives and their daily family lives.

The internationalization of relationships and travel gave rise to the need to extend Family and Succession Law to this new cross-border reality.

Sofia Vaz Pardal, lawyer registered with the Bar Association since February 2005.

Associate of the law firm Rogério Alves & Associados, in Lisbon, integrated in the area of ​​litigation and arbitration, working in the field of Family and Succession Law.

In recent years, it has had direct intervention in processes such as divorces, actions to challenge paternity and investigation of paternity, processes of attribution of the family home, precautionary procedures for listing common assets, actions for recognition of divorce sentences handed down in the foreign country, processes for the promotion and protection of minors, inventories, whether due to divorce or death, international abduction of minors, etc.

From daily practice, it emerged that Family and Succession Law is a very comprehensive area, in which people's lives are always present, as a common denominator, so the human factor has a huge preponderance, meaning that, the legal solutions that are found necessarily have to take into account the fact that they will influence several lives, at different levels.

Currently, Family and Succession Law has an increasingly accentuated international aspect, which means that processes with international connections often arise, resulting in the need to establish cross-border contacts.
