About the firm

Koronakis Law Firm was founded in 1991 and has offices in Athens, Thessaloniki and Mykonos. With an understanding of both the legal and the business environment, we give our clients ongoing support with everything a business needs to operate lawfully and without disruption.

We take on the whole process for the lawful operation of a business from the very start, and we offer a full range of complementary services: mediation, representation before the Greek courts and legal advice on any issue that arises at every stage of the business.

One point of contact for every aspect of your business

Our lawyers handle each case from every angle. For technical, accounting and health and hygiene matters, we work on a standing basis with independent engineers, accountants and food technologists, who provide and invoice their services separately. Our wide network of cooperating law firms allows us to be present throughout the country.

How we think

• Prevention first. We do not only deal with the legal problem; we help prevent it from arising. That is why we check the premises before the lease is signed and keep track of permits and deadlines.
• A business is a real business. We look at your premises with their operational, financial and technical needs, not just as a case file.
• Scrutiny of the administration. An administrative act is not correct simply because a competent authority issued it. We examine its legal basis, the procedure, the reasoning and its proportionality.
• Plain communication. A business owner should quickly understand the problem, the risk and what needs to be done.

Businesses we serve

• Traditional coffee houses (kafeneia), cafés, bars, wine bars, canteens and beach bars.

• Entertainment venues, theatres, cinemas and event venues.
• Grocery shops, supermarkets, food and drink shops, food warehouses and food production workshops.
• Hotels and tourist accommodation, together with the restaurants, bars and beach bars operating within them.
