Marriage and De Facto Union are different. But are they really that different?

In this episode of the Discurso Direito podcast, the answers to these and other questions are provided by ⁠Bárbara Figueiredo⁠, the lawyer responsible for the Family and Succession Law department at VFA.

Bárbara regularly writes about these topics. You can find her insights on our website, in the ⁠Knowledge⁠ section, or by searching for her name.
