Afroditi S. Beneki
Afroditi S. Beneki is a partner and founding member of the Beneki-Laskos Law Firm, an Athens practice recognised as Corporate Law Firm of the Year in Greece at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2025. Based in the Kolonaki district of central Athens, she is a specialist in corporate and commercial law, and her leadership has helped establish the firm as a respected adviser to businesses operating in and with Greece.
Born in Athens in 1986, Ms Beneki holds an LLB from the University of Athens, awarded in 2009, and has been a member of the Athens Bar Association since 2011, admitted to practise before the Appeal Courts. Before co-founding her own firm she gained valuable in-house and sector experience with two significant financial institutions, Piraeus Bank and Millennium Bank, work that gave her an early and detailed understanding of the regulatory and commercial environment in which Greek companies and financiers operate. She established the Beneki-Laskos Law Firm as a founding member in 2013, and has since built her reputation as one of the firm's principal figures in corporate and commercial matters.
Her practice is concentrated on corporate and commercial law and the litigation that arises from it. She advises companies on the full spectrum of business law questions, from corporate structuring and commercial contracts through to competition issues and the resolution of corporate and commercial disputes. She has been recognised as a recommended attorney in Business Law in Greece by Global Law Experts, an endorsement that reflects the standing she has achieved among peers and clients alike. Reflecting the growing importance of data protection to corporate clients, she has also been certified as a DPO Executive by TÜV Austria Hellas for the protection of personal data under the GDPR, allowing her to advise businesses on the compliance obligations that now accompany almost every commercial activity.
Ms Beneki acts regularly for major corporate clients, including INTERAMERICAN, the largest insurance company in Greece, a relationship that illustrates the trust placed in her judgement on significant and recurring commercial mandates. Her ability to combine corporate advisory work with related litigation gives clients a single point of contact across both the structuring and the defence of their business interests, an approach well suited to the demands of substantial and long-standing engagements.
The Beneki-Laskos Law Firm offers a focused range of services spanning corporate and commercial law, business law, competition law, commercial and corporate litigation, and data protection. Operating from central Athens, it serves both domestic and international clients seeking dependable, partner-led advice on the legal issues that shape their commercial activity in Greece. The firm's recognition as Corporate Law Firm of the Year in Greece at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2025 affirms the quality of that offering, and reflects the contribution of Ms Beneki and her fellow partners to building a practice that pairs technical expertise with a close, responsive relationship to the businesses it advises.
