Minuta.pt is a fully operational online marketplace selling lawyer-drafted legal document templates for the Portuguese market — a catalogue of 107 legal document products across 14 categories, including contracts, leases, employment, corporate and family law.
All templates are drafted and reviewed in cooperation with a Portuguese law firm and comply with Portuguese law. Stocked templates are delivered as instant Word/PDF downloads at €9–€17 per document, with payments processed automatically via Stripe. Products not yet stocked are drafted on demand: a purchase automatically notifies the partner lawyer, who produces the template; it is delivered to the customer and added permanently to the library. The catalogue therefore grows demand-first, with no upfront drafting cost for unsold titles. The custom-built bilingual (PT/EN) platform includes a full order-management back office, AI-assisted tooling and content sections, and is subscription-ready. No inventory, no staff, near-zero overhead.
Regulatory clearance: following a complaint concerning the provision of legal services by a non-lawyer entity, the business model was formally examined in proceedings before the Ordem dos Advogados (the Portuguese Bar Association), which concluded that the business may continue operating in its current manner. This removes the principal regulatory risk in the legal-template sector — legal groundwork any new entrant would face from scratch. Documentation available to qualified buyers.
Included in the sale:
- The minuta.pt and umaminuta.pt domain names
- The complete platform, codebase and ordermanagement back office
- Rights to use the existing lawyerreviewed template library
- The automated ondemand drafting workflow, with introduction and potential ongoing contract with the partner law firm
- One week of operational handover support
- Optional followon feature development at a discounted rate
The opportunity: the site generates organic sales today despite no SEO or marketing work ever having been performed — leaving search, content and paid acquisition as untouched growth levers. With 270+ referring domains already in place and an underserved Portuguese niche with few direct competitors, the expensive groundwork — template library, drafting pipeline, platform and regulatory clearance — is already complete. Ideal for a law firm, legal-tech operator or SEO/content investor. 100% digital, fully relocatable, and operable from anywhere in a few hours per month.
