Law firm

KPAG LOGO BLUE TRANSPARENT

Right from the time the KPAG Kosmidis & Partner law firm was founded, the focus of its legal consulting was adapted to the high demands and expectations that prevail particularly in cross-border legal fields (including, among others, inheritance and real estate law, as well as commercial and corporate law, renewable energies, claims and inheritance law).

Through appropriate focusing on this cross-border area, the primary objective of KPAG Kosmidis & Partner from the start was to fill the existing gap in this sector by providing specialist and competent legal advice to legal entities and natural persons in both Greece and Germany.

The employees of KPAG, who are qualified in both countries, possess the required language skills, the special commitment, but also extensive knowledge with regard to the country-specific procedural requirements and particularities existing in Germany and Greece, thereby ensuring that the individual requirements and expectations of clients are met to a high quality standard.

KPAG Kosmidis & Partner has also, after decades of cross-border activity in German-Greek legal areas, specifically expanded a nationwide network of competent employees and experts, which guarantees comprehensive and interdisciplinary advice for clients.

Since the trust of clients and immediate personal contact are particularly important to us, our law firm has expanded its presence by founding branches in both Germany and Greece, while maintaining central coordination, to also offer proximity to clients in this way.

With its sights always set forward and on the future, and striving for continuously increasing competence and innovative, high-quality advice, our firm is strengthening itself with qualified, competent, and motivated employees, in constant awareness of the challenges of the time, and in order to fully satisfy even the highest demands and claims of the clients.

Following this, a brief presentation of the firm, the employees, the fields of activity, as well as the cooperation areas of KPAG Kosmidis & Partner shall provide an initial insight for interested clients.

We look forward to personal contact and cooperation with you at any time!

Following this, you will receive an overview of the firm's partners and employees.
