The integration process in a foreign country is quite difficult and alarming. But thanks to the full support of Irina Akhmetova's law office and her team, we managed to overcome the first and most important step - obtaining the residence permit. High professionalism, competence, human support and, of course, results are perhaps the main words I want to say. We encountered many different challenges along our way, but thanks to the direct participation of Irina, as well as all the colleagues who participated in the process, we were able to success.

I met lawyer Irina Akhmetova in 2019, when I purchased my first property and obtained a residence permit in Lisbon, and I currently cooperate with Irina Akhmetova on an ongoing basis.
Exceptional professionalism, attention to detail and sensitive treatment of clients' personal data are the basic principles of Irina and her team.
Irina is respected
not only by her clients, but also by employees of migration services, banks and notaries in Portugal, having a brilliant reputation and extensive experience in resolving complex legal issues.
During the entire period of work, I was supported with attention and affection and I never encountered difficulties that Irina's team could not resolve.
By choosing Irina Akhmetova's office, you will have access to high-quality legal services and high customer service in Portugal in your native language.

From the beginning, Irina showed herself to be an expert in her field. We use Irina´s services with the aim of purchasing property in Portugal, to obtain residency and then apply for citizenship. Irina listened carefully to our wishes and proposed an ideal action plan, explaining each step of the process.
Her knowledge of the legislation and nuances of the migration process was impressive. Irina helped us choose the right property, considering all our preferences and budget. The entire purchasing process went smoothly thanks to her thorough preparation and attention to detail. Obtaining the residency was another step in which Irina proved herself to be a true professional. She prepared all the necessary documents and accompanied us through each step of the process, explaining which steps we needed to take.
In general, working with Irina Akhmetova gave us extremely positive emotions. She is not only a professional in her field, but also a wonderful person who truly cares about her clients. Thanks to her efforts we were able to make our dream of living in Portugal come true. I highly recommend Irina with confidence to anyone planning similar steps - you won't regret it!

I turned to Irina Akhmetova to resolve a difficult situation related to obtaining a residence permit in Portugal for myself and my family. From the point we met, despite her young age, Irina proved to be a highly qualified specialist with in-depth knowledge of all aspects of Portuguese legislation.
For 7 years, Irina has always paid attention to the details of each document, which is extremely important in our case. The ability to anticipate possible difficulties and quickly find effective solutions made the entire process of preparing residence permit documents much easier for us.
I would especially like to highlight Irina's professional attitude towards her work. She not only guides us legally, but also shows sincere care and support, which has helped us a lot in difficult times of expectation and uncertainty. Just the renaming and transfer of SEF to AIMA brought so many exciting and uncertain moments for everyone, but Irina resolved everything professionally.
Thanks to Irina's in-depth knowledge in the field of migration law and individual approach, our process of obtaining a residence permit was successful. I am completely satisfied with the result of the Irina´s work of and her huge team. The entire team that Ira selected and assembled consists of highly qualified specialists and responsible employees. I recommend the services to anyone who is faced with a similar problem and not just this one. In life you need to solve many problems and I can say that Irina perfectly solved all the problems that arose.
My experience in Portugal confirmed that choosing the right lawyer is important to successfully resolve legal problems. This is the best lawyer in Portugal. I RECOMMEND.

I would like to thank Irina for helping me move to Portugal.
It was thanks to her that I was able to start my new life here in 2018
Irina led the entire process of obtaining a work visa from scratch, took full responsibility for drawing up all necessary documents.
One more very important detail stands out
It was only thanks to Irina that my documents were accepted at the Portuguese Embassy in Moscow
In 2018, at the time of submission, the Embassy not only checked all the documents, but also led a short interview, and they refused to accept my documents. I don’t remember the details, but I remember they sent me home with “come back another time”
On the same day, Irina sent me citations of articles of the Portuguese Labor Code.
I printed it out and the next day I went to the embassy again, where an official with the words “all got smarter,” accepted my documents;
Irina also helped me receive my first two residence permits
Irina helped me solve my marriage problem. At first, I tried to file documents with the court on my own. But my documents were not accepted under various pretexts, then they were accepted and returned. Courts demanded translations of non-existent translations and notarial documents. After six months of suffering, my future Portuguese husband and I realized we couldn't cope alone and addressed to Irina. After getting in touch, we got married very quickly. During Covid epidemy times, everything was at a standstill, but we got married without delays or unnecessary expectations
2.5 years ago, again with Irina, we quickly got a residence permit for my father.
I would like to highlight the high professionalism not only of Irina Akhmetova herself, but also of the entire team that assists her. Everything is done on time; any questions are answered quickly.
For me, as a person who doesn't really like bureaucratic institutions, it is important that Irina takes care of all the paperwork and that my interaction with the structures is kept to a minimum.
Now, with Irina's help, I am taking care of the citizenship process. The documents were handed over, I don't need to do anything, all issues are resolved by Irina Akhmetova.
