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: Provided immigration assistance for relocation, managed banking and school documentation
Trust is everything, especially when moving your entire life to a new country. I worked with Ilya and his team, and they were incredibly reliable throughout the process. They managed my family's immigration, banking, and even school documentation efficiently, always answering any questions and concerns. Yes, everything was more expensive than other options, but given the importance of the matter, it was worth it for the peace of mind and professionalism they provided.

Service: Provided visa and relocation advice through a video call
The relocation company provided excellent information during our video call. They offered us two visa options and guided us on how to proceed properly, which was invaluable given our unique circumstances. I'm really satisfied with the direction they gave us, and I would use their services again without hesitation if needed.

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.

Service: Translating income and birth certificate documents from hebrew and english to portuguese
I had a great experience with the document translation service. Ren was quick and accurate in translating my income and birth certificate documents from Hebrew and English to Portuguese. I've used her services a few times, and everything was very good.
