“Closer. More preventive. More predictable.”

- When does a legal retainer make sense?
- When the company faces recurring legal decisions — hiring, contracts, HR, compliance — and prefers predictable costs over ad hoc calls. A retainer enables preventive monitoring and shorter response times.
- What does ongoing legal support include?
- Typically: contract review, employment hiring and termination support, corporate minutes and amendments, compliance assistance, and direct access to PREISA's partner for day-to-day matters as they arise.
- Does an SME need to implement GDPR?
- Yes. GDPR is not a large-company regime — it applies to any entity that processes personal data (clients, employees, suppliers). What changes is the depth of implementation. For an SME, the approach is proportionate and proportionately efficient.
- How do we support foreign companies in Portugal?
- We combine company formation, registered address, employment and contractual support, compliance and local representation — in PT, EN and ES. We act as a single legal point of contact for the Portuguese operation.
