The judgement of a GC.
The discipline of
private practice.

Most business law advice is written by lawyers who have never run a legal department, managed a budget, or sat in the room when a commercial decision actually gets made. Dionysios Pantazis sits in that room, as General Counsel to a Fortune 50 technology group — managing legal risk across eight countries and seven business lines. The business lawyers in Athens here work to a fixed scope, so the cost of asking is known in advance.

That perspective shapes every piece of advice we give. We do not produce theoretically correct memos that ignore commercial reality. We give the answer an in-house lawyer would actually act on — clear, prioritised, and aware of what a business can realistically absorb in terms of cost, time and risk. Tell us how your legal work arrives and we will propose a structure.

Our dual qualification in England & Wales and Greece means cross-border commercial matters are handled under a single instruction. Where a contract is governed by English law, the English-law analysis is done here rather than bought in.

Pantazis & Associates is recommended by a number of foreign embassies operating in Greece, including the UK, US and Australian embassies. The firm's lawyers are frequently invited to speak at international legal conferences and symposia, and the firm regularly provides opinions, analysis and commentary to international institutions such as the World Justice Project and the World Bank. In business law as in litigation, the firm has advised on matters that other lawyers read about in textbooks and legal journals — institutional recognition that no marketing budget can buy.
