Introducing Myself
Christianna Tsigaloglou
I hold a Law Degree from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, a Master’s Degree (LL.M.) from the University of Bristol (with distinction), and a Certificate of Professional Education and Training in Tax Law from the Athens University of Economics and Business (with distinction). I am a registered member of the Chania Bar Association (No. 328).
Following my postgraduate studies, I worked at a leading law firm in Athens — first as an associate and later as a junior partner — advising commercial and corporate clients on a wide range of business and transactional matters. This experience equipped me with a strong foundation in strategic legal advisory, corporate structures, and complex negotiations.
Choosing to return to my hometown, Chania, I established my own practice with a clear mission: to provide specialized, accurate and fully personalized legal services to international clients investing in Greek real estate, as well as to local and foreign businesses seeking long-term legal support.
Today, my practice focuses on real estate transactions, corporate law, and residence-permit services linked to investment, offering clients practical, business-oriented guidance and high-level legal support throughout every stage of their investment.
Your Trusted Legal Partner in Real Estate Investment in Crete
Successful real estate investments in Greece require more than general legal advice — they require local knowledge, precision, and hands-on experience. My law office represents international buyers, investors, developers and corporate clients throughout the entire lifecycle of a real estate transaction, offering practical, business-oriented legal solutions tailored to each case.
What I do
I advise foreign individuals and companies on:
- Residential and commercial property acquisitions
- Off-plan, under-construction and developer projects
- Land purchases, planning permissions and building regulations
- Construction agreements and stage-payment structures
- Verification of titles, zoning, rights of way and encumbrances
- Banking, financing and mortgage coordination
- Tax structuring for property ownership in Greece
- Corporate vehicles for property investment
- Lease agreements, management and long-term administration
- Inheritance and transfer of Greek property
How i work
Every file is handled personally —not delegated — ensuring that clients receive clear guidance.
I coordinate directly with notaries, engineers, accountants, banks and real estate professionals, ensuring that each stage of the process runs smoothly and transparently.
Beyond the purchase
My services continue well after completion. I assist clients with:
- Utilities and administrative setup
- Tax registrations and ongoing property obligations
- Dispute resolution, where required
- Succession planning for Greek assets

These programs offer long-term stability and the opportunity to live or invest in one of
Europe’s most desirable locations.

I also represent non-EU nationals seeking residence in Greece through investment programs, including:
- Golden Visa
- Financially Independent Persons (FIP) Visa
- Digital Nomad Visa
