Specialization in international legal matters with a connection to Greece
The professional, social, and cultural background of our staff already reflects a specialization in international legal matters connected with Greece and Germany/Austria. It was, however, only the decision to work exclusively, as lawyers in Greece, for medium-sized and large international companies operating between Greece and other countries – with particular strength in the German-speaking markets of Germany and Austria – that led to today’s association of specialist lawyers and experts within an international cooperation network.

National particularities in the EU internal market
What belongs together does, in time, grow together – yet the continually converging EU internal market is still met by a flood of national law and legal particularities, only partly harmonised, across an enlarged circle of member states. Where previously only larger corporations and companies had to master these regional particularities, small and medium-sized enterprises, favoured by the creation of the EU internal market, are now increasingly confronted as well with the differing legal systems and national particularities of the countries in which they wish to become active.
Company formations in Greece
Company formation in Greece has shown constant growth for years. In many sectors, the domestic market is not yet fully developed or saturated, while Greece’s stable political and economic system offers the investment security required. The resulting need of companies for cross-border legal advice and guidance calls for swift, practice-oriented, and reliable answers to new and complex questions. A further focus of our firm is international inheritance law. Owing to the specific needs of our clients, we have developed a specialization in handling and resolving cross-border inheritance matters, in particular those connecting Greece with Germany and other countries.
Qualified advice in specialist areas of law
We are committed to meeting the advisory needs in these areas of law on the strength of our many years of experience, as well as our sense for the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of case handling. Comprehensive preventive advice before contracts are concluded, and the obtaining of credit reports on potential contracting partners, round out our range of services.
FAQ
The expertise of KPAG Kosmidis & Partner rests on the international background of its staff. The firm has deliberately focused on acting as a bridge for medium-sized and large international companies, as well as private individuals, between Greece and other countries – with particular strength in the German-speaking markets of Germany and Austria.
This focus led to the formation of a network of specialist lawyers and experts who resolve complex cross-border matters with legal certainty.
The firm is focused on business law and offers comprehensive support in the following specialist areas:
• Company and business law: formation, restructuring, mergers & acquisitions (M&A).
• Trade and distribution: commercial law, commercial agency law, and industrial property protection.
• Real estate and energy: property law, together with specialized advice on photovoltaics and renewable energy.
• Finance: debt collection, international tax law, and wealth advisory.
• Dispute resolution: civil litigation, as well as legally sound contract drafting in German and Greek.
For private clients, the focus is on managing and safeguarding cross-border assets:
• International inheritance law: handling complex cross-border inheritance matters (in particular German-Greek matters).
• Real estate law: support with the purchase, construction, and management of property.
• Enforcement: enforcing foreign enforceable titles (e.g. German titles) in Greece.
Despite the shared EU internal market, the law is only partly harmonised. Companies face a flood of national particularities. Whereas in the past it was mainly large corporations that had to overcome these hurdles, today small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) too need guidance in order to operate with legal certainty within the differing legal systems of Greece and their home countries.
Greece offers high investment security thanks to its stable system and, in some sectors, still-unsaturated markets. The advisory need is particularly practice-oriented:
• Prompt answers: companies need reliable guidance on complex questions of formation.
• Prevention: KPAG provides support even before a contract is concluded, through credit reports on potential partners and comprehensive risk analyses.
Efficiency and cost-effectiveness are paramount. Drawing on many years of experience, the firm combines legal depth with commercial judgment. Its range of services is rounded out by preventive measures and strategic conflict management, aimed at avoiding protracted proceedings wherever possible.
