WHO WE ARE

A Founder-Led Practice Registered with the Cyprus Bar

THE LEGAL DEFINITION
Every advocate practising in Cyprus is licensed and supervised by the Cyprus Bar Association under the Advocates Law (Cap. 2) and the Cyprus Bar Code of Conduct.

Harris Koufettas has been a member of the Cyprus Bar Association since 2010 (Bar Reg R.N.4466). He founded Harris Koufettas & Associates LLC as a boutique practice in Paphos — small enough that you speak directly to the partner who owns your matter, large enough to handle complex cross-silo work in four working languages.

"
Every engagement begins with a written letter setting out scope and fees in plain English — signed by the partner who will own your matter.
