Those who trusted us, in their own words
«An excellent professional and, above all, an excellent person. He helped my parents through the entire process of acquiring Greek citizenship, with consistency, patience and genuine interest. He was always available to explain every step of the process and to answer all our questions, making a rather difficult and time-consuming process seem much simpler. We warmly thank him for his help, his professionalism and above all his humane approach. I recommend him without reservation to anyone who needs legal support in a similar process. He truly deserves the very best!»
(translation from Greek language)
«An excellent, experienced lawyer! For a year I had been trying to book an appointment with the Greek embassy in Senegal (West Africa) for a visa for my partner, and there was no way I could manage it. And, to my good fortune, Mr Petros was recommended to me! In no time he arranged an appointment for my partner with the Greek embassy in Dakar. The result: they gave us a visa (14 days) for Greece. The very best part: in 7 days Mr Petros sorted out all our documents, the residence permit and the work permit for Greece. Mr Petros, you are an excellent professional! Thank you very much!»

«Ive never met such a professional, knowledgable, caring lawyer, and I have been through many. From the minute I met Petro, I felt a feeling of over whelming clarity and relief, and at the end of our meetings, solving my complex problems completely. Petros, you are now my lawyer for the rest of my life.»
"I am astonished by the work of mr. Petros in my case, it had an extremely hard case, many lawyers told me it's impossible to solve but with his hard work and experience it was solved, at an affordable fee and a short time frame! I am grateful and would definitely recommend this highly professional office!"
"I have passed through the hands of many lawyers, many scams, many places until I stumbled upon PETROS. He was the only person who inspired trust and confidence, and finally was able to get me my permit, and truly showed how much he cares. After meeting him I left with a permit, but also a great friend! I could not recommend him enough. Thank you Petros <3"
