Criminal Law & White-Collar Crime
Our Criminal Law & White-Collar Crime Practice is recognized as one of the leading forces in high-stakes legal defense in Greece and across jurisdictions. We represent both corporate and private clients before all levels of Greek Criminal Courts, as well as in cross-border proceedings, collaborating with distinguished local counsel throughout the EU and appearing before the European Court of Human Rights.
What sets us apart is not just our legal mastery, but the strategic depth and precision we bring to each case. From the earliest stages of investigation, we design robust, multidimensional defense strategies rooted in fact, law, and context. We are known for original thinking, attention to nuance, and a capacity to reframe even the most challenging accusations.
We are principled in our approach, unbiased, discreet, and unshakably committed to our clients’ right to fair representation. We defend with integrity, with boldness, and with the belief that justice must be pursued without compromise.
