In today's world of increasing international trade and inter-dependence, public international law has assumed greater importance in international commercial transactions and is particularly prevalent in dealing with governments and international organisations. Issues may also arise from the interpretation of a treaty, or the imposition of sanctions by the UN or the EU; hence its relevance for private clients should not be underestimated.
Our legal experts led by Ilias Bantekas, Professor of International Law at Brunel University London, have extensive experience in advising on all matters affecting State entities, foreign investors and international organisations, whether operating in Greece or elsewhere.
