A substantial portion of the firm's practice focuses on financial crime both in the public and the private sector. Representation in cases of public corruption, bribery, embezzlement, fraud, tax crime and liability of company’s officers are the main fields of practice of Asprogerakas–Grivas Law Firm for either the complainant or the defending party. The Firm's litigation group has extensive experience in trying major trials in courts across the country and has represented numerous clients before the Supreme Court, the Council of State and the Courts of Appeals. European Union law, intellectual property and human rights are also fields of law in which Asprogerakas–Grivas Law Firm is traditionally dominant.
Our lawyers and experts also provide counseling, negotiation services, representation before public authorities and the issuing of legal opinions.
The Firm is also one of the best-known European firms for representing clients before the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) and the European Court of Justice (ECJ). Some of the most important rulings of these International Courts have been shaped by us.

Our services comprise representation of both the complainant and the defending party and fully cover all procedural stages including litigation at all degrees, representation before regulatory authorities and financial intelligence units, pre-indictment procedure and extra-judicial negotiations. Furthermore, given the international nature of our cases, our services cover most European jurisdictions, facilitated by our network of highly esteemed associates in the U.K., France, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Cyprus and Luxembourg.
Our law firm has a long-standing reputation in issuing respected legal opinions on the subject matters of our field. Our legal opinions may be intended either for official use or as legal assessments addressed to our clients and their lawyers based in foreign jurisdictions as an analysis of the facts and law of particular cases, combined with a concrete plan of proposed action and the prospects for each case.
We strongly believe in providing our clients with high-quality, reliable legal assistance when it is needed most, and we always go above and beyond in our efforts to help our clients maximize their recovery. Our achievements speak for themselves. Just in the past five years:
We were present in most of the ongoing “scandal” cases and major cases of public corruption. We represented and won over 1.000 criminal cases and participated in top-level cases involving former members of the Parliament, Government, and Local Government.
We provided exclusive criminal representation for the most important corporations in Greece in the fields of banking, finance and investments, shipping, construction, mass media, new technologies, food production & distribution, audio & film productions, digital service providers, telecommunications and many more.
