The Problem
Over 800,000 foreign residents live in Portugal, many owning property. Most don't know that Portuguese forced heirship law could override their home country's will — potentially disinheriting a spouse, leaving assets to estranged children, or creating tax nightmares.

Information is scattered across blogs, forums, and government websites in multiple languages. Expats either overpay for advice or, more commonly, do nothing — creating a ticking time bomb for their families.
Digital assets add another layer: crypto, online accounts, subscriptions — Portugal has no specific legislation for digital inheritance.
