P. V. Kanellopoulos & Partnerts Law Firm
Litigation & Arbitration
Our litigators have a proven record of success in handling complex, high-stakes cases that involve large sums of money and have broad economic and political repercussions.

However, we consider it particularly important to provide responsible advice to clients about the actual necessity of litigating and the options available for resolving disputes outside the courtroom.
