03

Availability

24/7 emergency line for criminal and urgent procedural matters. We respond when the call comes, not at office hours.

If you are in Greece and have been detained, questioned, or served with a legal notice — do not sign anything before speaking with a lawyer. Call immediately: +30 2289 100 111

Criminal Defence

When things escalate, you need a lawyer already on the ground.

Being a foreign national in Greece during a criminal investigation or arrest creates layers of vulnerability that go beyond the immediate legal issue — language barriers, unfamiliar procedure, distance from home counsel, and pressure to cooperate quickly. We step in immediately to stabilise the situation and protect your rights under Greek law from the first moment.

Our approach is quiet and methodical: secure the client's procedural position, establish communication with prosecutors and authorities, and ensure no irrecoverable step is taken under pressure.

Legal Procedure

Questioning, summons, and procedural escalation.

Not every urgent legal situation begins with arrest. Summons to appear before a prosecutor, requests for a statement, notification of a pending charge, or escalation from a civil dispute into criminal territory all require immediate legal positioning before you respond — or appear.

"The most consequential legal decisions are made in the first hours. How you respond — or whether you respond at all — defines the trajectory of the case."

Christos Skotanis, Managing Partner

We advise on whether to appear, what to say, what not to say, and how to frame every procedural step in a way that does not create unnecessary exposure.

Real Estate & Transactions

Greek property acquisition for international investors — without the surprises.

The Greek real estate market — especially in the Cyclades — carries regulatory complexity that is not visible from the surface: contested cadastral registration, construction permit irregularities, encumbrances on title, or fragmented ownership structures in island properties. For international investors, these are invisible risks that only a ground-level legal review can identify.

We conduct full due diligence, coordinate with notaries, and structure acquisitions in a way that protects your position before commitment — not after it.

Remote Coordination

You don't need to be in Greece to begin.

Many matters can be initiated, monitored, and advised on remotely. We work with international clients who manage legal affairs in Greece from abroad — monitoring ongoing proceedings, receiving regular case updates, and maintaining a legal presence in Greece without the need for continuous travel. Secure communication by phone, WhatsApp, video call, or encrypted email. English and Italian spoken directly by the attorneys in charge.
