Fabulous service from everyone at Philippou Law. We moved here in July and had our immigration sorted with Nikolas and Laura, our tax residency, non-dom and the opening of our business was seamlessly done by Cleo, and we are also buying our house with them, where Maria and Elpida have been wonderful. Honestly I would not go anywhere else. Many thanks all.

I relied on this firm for the incorporation of a company in Cyprus, and the experience exceeded all expectations. From the first step to the final setup they were extremely professional, precise, and attentive to every requirement. A special and sincere thank you to Sergios and Evie, who were always available, proactive, and incredibly supportive.
