WE OFFER OUR CLIENTS MORE THAN JUST A LEGAL ADVICE

Seek legal advice from a boutique law firm with a robust team and a proven track record in litigation. Our team is also skilled in handling out-of-court settlements. Our legal team comprises accredited mediators and international arbitrators.

Five Reasons to Trust Our Legal Team.
Honesty:

Honesty garners respect and appreciation from courts and judges. To secure an honest lawyer, you must be an honest client. It is the foundation upon which we build enduring relationships with our clients. Fear not to disclose the truth; it is the surest path to achieving the best possible outcome.
Proactiveness:

Our legal team can provide advice to ensure all your legal affairs are in order and protect you before any lawsuit arises. We can assist in drafting your will and help minimize legal expenses. We do not recommend seeking a lawyer's consultation after being sued.
Mitigate Damages:

Even if you have already been sued, it's not too late if the case is still in the early stages. Our legal team can provide help, assistance, and advice to mitigate any potential damages.
Drafting Agreements:

Draft or negotiate your contracts with our assistance. We can aid you with your customer, employee, supplier agreements, or even with contracts for immovable property buying/selling or renting. Drafting the agreements on your own can quickly lead to issues, and you're likely to overlook legal and non-legal aspects that could result in complications and potentially serious financial and otherwise trouble.
Business Incorporation/Advice/Structural Decisions:

Whether you're incorporating a new business or restructuring an existing one, trust our firm and our team of financial experts. We will assist you in understanding liabilities, tax obligations, setup fees, and ongoing expenses, among other financial aspects.

Our goal is to proactively assist clients in preventing future legal issues.

CYPRUS LEGAL SYSTEM & COURT STRUCTURE

Cyprus was a British colony until 1960, when it gained independence and was declared a republic. Before independence, Cyprus's legal system was based on the English legal system, which applied common law and equity principles through laws made for the colony. After independence, this legal system was mostly preserved, and many of these laws are still in force. The relevant laws are as follows:

The Constitution of the Republic of Cyprus
The laws retained in force by virtue of Article 188 of the Constitution
The principles of Common Law and Equity
The Laws enacted by the House of Representatives.

Following the accession of The Republic of Cyprus to the European Union in 2004, the Constitution was amended so that European law has supremacy over the Constitution and national legislation.
