INFORMATION QUESTIONS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need to travel to Greece to handle my legal or property matters?

No, you do not need to travel to Greece. You can manage your legal affairs remotely through a Power of Attorney (POA). In Greece, a POA is a formal document that authorises me to act on your behalf in specific legal or administrative matters. It must clearly define the exact powers granted, as vague or general authorisations are not accepted.

What real estate services do you provide for clients residing overseas?

I provide comprehensive assistance in: 

  1. property purchases and sales, 
  2. ownership verification, 
  3. contract preparation,
  4. registration procedures, 
  5. leasing arrangements,
  6. rental agreements.

Additionally, I handle property planning, including inheritance planning through wills and lifetime property transfers such as parental gifts.

How does the inheritance process work in Greece if I live abroad?

Greek inheritance matters are challenging for those living abroad. Under Greek law, inheritance passes either through a valid will or via intestacy rules, if no will exists. I manage the entire process, including property title searches, asset tracing, and inheritance tax filings. Where real estate is involved, the acceptance process is completed before a Greek Notary Public and then registered with the relevant Cadastre Office. I handle this for you, entirely through a Power of Attorney.

How can I claim Greek citizenship by descent?

Greek citizenship by descent is based on tracing an unbroken line of civil registration through municipal records, starting with an officially registered Greek parent. If historical documentation is incomplete, additional verification steps are necessary. In cases where documentary proof is insufficient, citizenship may be granted through naturalisation, which involves a holistic assessment of your family origin, cultural involvement, connection to the Greek community, and a structured interview process.

What if I become involved in a legal dispute in Greece?

I provide robust representation in civil matters and handle full legal representation before all competent Greek courts. In line with a preventive approach, I initially seek to resolve disputes without recourse to court proceedings. 

For clients residing abroad, I ensure continuous case oversight and systematic communication so that you remain fully informed throughout the entirety of the proceedings
