Service: Accounting for a company
I recently worked with Leonel from Saudade Consulting for my company's accounting needs. Honestly, the experience was really good. Leonel was professional and knew exactly what he was doing. He kept everything straightforward and explained the financial details in a way I could understand, which I appreciated. The service was timely; he met all our deadlines without any hassle. There were no hidden fees or surprises when it came to cost, which was a relief. Overall, I'd recommend his services to other businesses looking for reliable accounting support.

Service: Translated my children's school certificates for me
I recently used Wordaholics, Lda. for translating my children's school certificates and I was very impressed with Andreia's service. She was incredibly communicative, asked specific questions about the translation to ensure it met the school's unique format requirements, and even made sure that the documents were in order for their acceptance. What stood out to me was how quickly she completed the job—faster than we initially agreed upon. Andreia is not just thorough in her work but also really pleasant to deal with, responding promptly to messages. Overall, a delightful experience and I'd highly recommend her services!

Service: Buying a house in Lisbon
Navigating the real estate market in Portugal felt overwhelming, but Avi has been a great help. Ever since we started working with him in August 2023, he's made sure we understood every step. Although the deal isn't complete yet, his guidance has been invaluable amid the slow bureaucracy here.

Service: Translation of documents for the bank for obtaining a mortgage.
After having a poor experience with another translator, I turned to Ilya for translating my documents to Portuguese for a mortgage. The professionalism was evident as he corrected mistakes from the previous translation, and everything was impeccably organized. I appreciated that everything arrived beautifully formatted, complete with all necessary stamps, right to my door.
