The firm was founded in May 2006 by Angelos G. Paphitis, as a company law boutique Law Firm, focusing on company law and corporate litigation alone, which over the course of the firm’s history have had the dedication to expand the firm, both in areas of practice and size but always following the same dedication, and handle all sorts of high-profile and complex cases, transactions, and disputes.

As of today, our Firm represents some of Cyprus’ largest investors, major corporations, and high-net-worth individuals despite the continuously changing and extremely demanding conditions we currently live in, where many competitors are struggling, shrinking or completely abandoning the Cyprus legal market. The firm has grown to a team of over 35 legal and other professionals who all share the same professional esprit de corps.

“Fifteen years ago, we formed a boutique law firm and little did we know that the boutique will grow and expand to one of the most prestigious law firms in Cyprus representing high-profile clients and investors. Today we know that the key ingredient to our successful growth is our commitment, hard work, ethos, and client-first approach. Our focus and dedication towards our clients are what give us a competitive advantage over law firms offering similar legal services to the ones that we provide. Today I can say that our client-oriented approach has become our brand’s trademark,” said Mr Angelos G. Paphitis, Founder and Managing Partner of A.G. Paphitis & Co. LLC.

A.G. Paphitis & Co. LLC has been awarded countless important titles throughout the years and these titles serve as a testament to how far we have come and how much we have managed to achieve as a team. The firm claimed the title of ‘Corporate Governance Law Firm 2010’ in Cyprus. Shortly after, the firm was recommended as one of the top 25 law firms in Cyprus in the October 2011 issue of Corporate INTL Magazine and in the same year was awarded titles of ‘Corporate Governance Law Firm of the Year’ in Cyprus by both the ‘Corporate International Global Awards’ and the ‘Global Law Experts’. In 2012 the firm was listed as ‘A Leading Law Firm in Dispute Resolution’ by the Legal 500 EMEA. By 2013 A.G. Paphitis & Co. LLC was characterised as ‘A Leading Law Firm’ in Banking & Finance, Corporate, Commercial & Mergers and Acquisitions as well as Taxation Law. Finally, and staying aligned with its extremely fast progress, from 2013 onwards A.G. Paphitis & Co. LLC has managed to be both ranked and recommended on all areas of our practice by the Legal 500 EMEA, Chambers & Partners, IFLR1000, Benchmark Litigation, Best Lawyers, and many other legal directories, and has been recognised as a leading law firm in the region ever since. Proudly, on December 2019 during a prestigious celebration at the Hôtel Ritz Paris, our Firm was recommended by the European Legal Awards as Cyprus Law Firm of the Year 2019 in Litigation & Dispute Resolution.

We aim to gain recognition and reach excellence every upcoming year. Our purpose is to meet and exceed every expectation our clients may have.

We also aim to expand the number of our legal professionals specialising in all aspects of law by considering new staff applications and giving opportunities to young lawyers who may have a fresh perspective on how to tackle certain legal issues and have a fresher grasp on latest legal issues and developments.

We pride ourselves on always working as a team looking for colleagues that can help in expanding the firm’s integrity and legal expertise. After all, any client’s biggest consideration when picking a legal representative is finding a lawyer who is well-informed, well-educated, experienced, can go the extra mile, and who can be trusted with various important matters.

Thank you | We thank our valued clients and associates, both former and current, for supporting us, encouraging us, trusting their cases, business and matters in our hands and bringing us to who we are and what we have achieved today with their loyalty. Therefore, to each and every one of our clients and associates, we give our heartfelt thanks, highest appreciation and gratitude. We are looking forward to continue building long-term relationships with our clients and associates and to a brighter future full of successes.
