The Firm is one of the oldest and leading law firms in Greece. It was initially established in 1933 by Elias Sp. Paraskevas (1912- 1991), who, in the course of nearly sixty years of legal practice, came to be referred to as the "Dean of Greek Lawyers" and who is cited repeatedly throughout the leading case books.

Our clients include many of the leading multinational corporations, financial institutions, governments, international organizations, large state-owned concerns, and private foundations. We have taken part in many of the most significant transactions and cases in Greece and we have served our clients in several countries in collaboration with leading international law firms.

Our team of lawyers is highly qualified. In addition to their Greek qualifications, our lawyers have trained abroad; many have earned law degrees and post-graduate degrees from foreign universities and have a thorough understanding of the laws and practices of countries other than Greece. Their international background enables them to structure and negotiate cross-border business transactions and to document them in a style familiar to Anglo Saxon/United States lawyers and their clients. Their familiarity with foreign languages and cultures allows us to bridge cultural gaps and make clients feel comfortable in their Greek and international ventures.
