Christina Georgaki
Christina Georgaki is the Founder and Managing Partner of Georgaki & Partners Law Firm (Georgaki Law), a Greek legal and consulting practice with a strong focus on foreign direct investment and investment migration. The firm has been named Foreign Direct Investments Law Firm of the Year in Greece at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2026, recognising its role in guiding international investors into the Greek market.
Integrated legal and consulting services
Georgaki Law positions itself as a provider of integrated legal and consulting services, combining legal expertise with commercial advisory work to help clients realise investment and business ventures in Greece. The firm describes its aspiration as delivering excellent quality integrated services by leveraging global expertise to meet client needs, with a particular focus on corporate operations that address gaps in the market and create tangible value. With around 19 years of operation, the practice has developed considerable experience in serving international clients, and it provides services in seven different languages — a reflection of the cross-border nature of its work.
The firm maintains offices in Athens, at Merlin 11 in the central Kolonaki district, and in Thessaloniki, on Leoforos Nikis. Christina Georgaki leads the practice as Founder and Managing Partner, working alongside a founding partner and a wider team.
Foreign direct investment and investment migration
The firm’s core strength lies in foreign direct investment and investment migration, including Greece’s residence-by-investment programme, commonly known as the Golden Visa. According to the firm, its work in this area has supported the issue of some 6,000 residence permits, illustrating the scale of its investment-migration practice. In addition to investment migration, the firm advises across real estate, hospitality, agriculture, energy, banking and finance, corporate structuring, litigation and alternative dispute resolution, and tax planning — a spread of practice areas that mirrors the sectors in which inbound investors are most active in Greece.
Greece has become an increasingly attractive destination for foreign direct investment, supported by its residence-by-investment programme, its recovering real estate market, and opportunities in tourism, renewable energy and infrastructure. For international investors, however, entering the Greek market involves navigating a civil-law legal system, property and planning rules, tax considerations and the specific requirements of the Golden Visa framework. A firm that combines legal advice with practical consulting support, as Georgaki Law does, is well placed to help clients structure investments, complete real estate acquisitions, and secure the residence rights that often accompany qualifying investments.
A partner for cross-border investors
The multilingual, service-oriented model adopted by Georgaki Law is designed around the needs of clients who may be based abroad and unfamiliar with the Greek legal and administrative environment. By handling both the legal execution of a transaction and the surrounding advisory and migration process, the firm aims to offer a single point of contact for investors seeking to establish a presence in Greece, whether their primary interest is real estate, business investment, or the residence and lifestyle benefits associated with investment in the country.
Investment-migration work in particular demands close attention to detail and careful coordination. The Golden Visa process requires that qualifying investments are properly structured and documented, that applications are prepared and submitted correctly, and that clients understand the ongoing conditions attached to their residence rights. Errors or delays can have significant consequences for applicants and their families, so the value of experienced counsel lies in guiding clients smoothly from the initial investment decision through to the grant of residence. Georgaki Law’s combined legal and consulting model, its multilingual team and its experience across the sectors in which investors are most active allow it to manage this journey end to end, positioning the firm as a trusted gateway for those looking to invest in, and relocate to, Greece.
