English speaking lawyer and Accountant in Greece and Melbourne
There are many Greeks, Greek Australian Dual Citizens, and Australian of Greek decent living in Melbourne and the wider Victoria region. Our team of lawyers, accountants and marketers help Greeks living in Melbourne manage their affairs in Greece. We are able to help Greek Australians with all aspects of their affairs in Greece including providing advice on inheritance law, property and real estate, tax advice and accounting services and business expansion and development services in Greece.
Our team includes a highly experienced bid and tender writers with a track record of navigating Greek government regulation, as well as a number of partner lawyers and accountants who specialise in servicing the unique needs and requirements of expats. Greece and Australia do not have a double tax treaty in place (although both government have confirmed they are working towards signing one hopefully this year in 2024). However, there are options for foreign credits under the credit method and other structures. Our team is able to provide advice on the optimal tax structure so everything is transparent, put in place, and organised.
How will our English speaking lawyers and accountants in Greece work with you
We can help you with nearly all situations Greek expats or Dual Citizens living in Melbourne face including:
- Buying and selling property in Greece. Our service extends across Greece and we use local notaries to assist where required. Our specialist real estate lawyer partners understand the pitfalls of purchasing property in Greece and can guide you through the transaction process. We don’t recommend or work in collaboration with any specific real estate agents, ensuring integrity in our services. We do, however, work closely with our accounts team, other accountants, your civil engineers and many other stakeholders to service your real estate needs in Greece.
- Inheriting property and other assets / funds. Many Greek Australians in Melbourne inherit property in Greece from direct parents as well as family members. This property is often of substantial value from a monetary or sentimental perspective. The process can become complicated with different names (if names have been anglicised over the years) and other issues that can arise. Our lawyers have experience in inheritance law as well as wills and probates – particularly for dual Australian and Greek citizens. We can help you through the process and deal with any related property and squatters rights issues.
- General administration and financial dealings in Greece. From completing your tax returns, ENFIA obligations, arranging for marriages to be registered and applying for citizenship through the different visa types, our personnel are experienced and ready to assist. We have also helped clients with immigration and citizenship applications and work with a specialised citizenship lawyer in this area.
