Most growing companies — whether Greek businesses expanding internationally, foreign companies entering the Greek market, or SMEs managing an increasing legal burden — reach a point where ad-hoc legal advice is no longer enough. Contracts are being signed without proper review. Employment decisions are made without legal input. Regulatory obligations are tracked informally. The risks accumulate quietly. An outsourced general counsel in Greece is measured by how few matters escalate, not by how many are opened.
Hiring a full-time General Counsel is the obvious solution — but for most companies at this stage, it is not the right one. A senior in-house lawyer in Greece commands a significant salary, generates ongoing employment obligations, and may not bring the breadth of expertise a growing business genuinely needs.
"The Outsourced GC model gives you the judgement and experience of a senior lawyer who knows your business — at a fraction of the cost of an in-house hire, with none of the employment overhead." Companies use an outsourced general counsel in Greece when the legal questions are constant but do not justify a salaried hire.
Pantazis & Associates offers a dedicated Outsourced General Counsel service on a monthly retainer basis. You get a senior lawyer — not a junior — who learns your business, attends your meetings when needed, reviews your contracts, advises your management, and handles the full range of day-to-day legal matters that arise. We act as your legal department. We will scope a retainer against your actual volume, not a standard tier.
