International Referral, the world’s largest exclusive network of advisory firms is delighted to introduce Manolis Eglezos of Manolis Eglezos & Associates. Manolis has joined IR as our exclusive Maritime Law Member in the Greece.
Manolis Eglezos is an attorney at law since 1990.
He is brought up in Piraeus and his family originates from Asia Minor and Crete. Manolis finished Ionideios high school, a distinct public school of Piraeus, and got his LLB from Athens University in 1988. He did his training with Deverakis law office and continued there when he qualified as a lawyer until 1997, with an interval in 1991-92, when he obtained an LLM degree in Maritime Law from Cardiff University. In 2006-08 he obtained an MSc degree in Business for Lawyers from Alba graduate business school in Athens. Since the 90s he gives lectures on Maritime Law and other fields of his specialization in various educational organizations and in the Piraeus Bar seminars for trainees.
Having gained substantial experience in the fields of Maritime, Commercial and Banking law, he opened in 1997 his own office specializing in the above areas of law. In 2014, the practice became a law firm under the name MANOLIS EGLEZOS AND ASSOCIATES LAW FIRM.
He consults in Greek, English and Spanish.
He strongly believes that a lawyer, as everybody else, needs to be an active member of the society. This allows the lawyer to broaden his perspective and receive inspiration, thus avoiding to become an one-sided professional who has no connection with the world out there, while experience gained can be creatively applied in the hard work of a legal consultant.
Manolis is also a producer of organic olive oil and herbs in Crete, to the extent heavy working hours allow it, usually weekends. He also believes that local traditions are vital in a globalized environment and that if they are adapted to today’s challenges, they can offer substantial assistance both locally and, through the dialogue of the different localities, worldwide; of course, traditional values of sincerity, solidarity, cooperation, well-made work, can be applied in the legal profession.
Manolis expresses his views, both legal and social, in the media (TV, radio, press).
His moto is that nothing is impossible. In that sense, he exhausts all available alternatives to serve clients’ goals. Efficiency, immediate reactions, founded replies, are the pillars of his work, which he also shares with his colleagues in the Firm.
If you have a requirement in this area, please get in touch with Manolis directly or with the International Referral head office for an introduction.
