I started writing this blog because I feel that reliable legal information and services on Greek law by a Greek Attorney servicing the Greek-American population are missing and are desperately needed. I also realize that the one thing you cannot find, you cannot buy, you cannot cheat, but you have to earn by yourself through your hard work is the most important asset in any profession: Experience.
Now I am located and practicing as a Foreign Legal Consultant in Chicago to utilize this experience for the benefit of all the Greek-American population and help you or those close to you solve any issues you or they might have with Greek law. One way to do that is by tackling different and interesting topics, that all Greek-Americans find useful. The idea is not to give lectures or lessons in Greek law, but to start a conversation with all of you, my readers, and try to help you understand and solve any issues you might have. In my many discussions with members of the Greek-American community here, I understand that so many of you want to have someone to give them sound advice on legal topics in Greece– be it inheritance, property, taxation, citizenship, etc. You want someone you can trust. You need someone local here, so you can have a meeting face to face and discuss any and all concerns and legal problems. But you also need someone who knows the system and will represent your best interests in Greece. My major advantage is that I have created and sustained a huge network of professionals in Greece (my fellow lawyers, real estate brokers, notary publics, contractors, builders, accountants, travel agents), ready to tackle any problem and give reliable answers and solutions. This blog is merely an introduction of my legal knowledge, my professional background, my services and my readiness to offer help. Furthermore, this blog is a conversation, it is a two way street. I start with an introduction and you continue with comments and requests, giving me back the opportunity to continue the dialogue, so we can keep the discussion alive and helpful. The blog will be updated every two weeks with a new and definitely interesting subject every time. So what do you say? Let’s start this journey together!
