VG Lawyers

Our Philosophy

Our flexible team includes both experienced and younger lawyers with a passion for hard work and high performance.

At VG Lawyers, we work alongside our clients without treating them in a detached manner. We develop close and strong bonds with them to achieve an in-depth and well-rounded understanding of their needs. This personal touch is what ensures immediate and responsible results.

We believe in providing specialized and personalized services for long-standing clients, taking their individual characteristics, strategies, and objectives into consideration. Our areas of expertise are the parts of private and public law, which are needed by a modern-day business. To meet needs in areas outside our expertise, our leading-edge firm also employs a network of expert associates in Greece and abroad.

We place emphasis on prevention. In handling every new case, cost, time and efficiency are key. When cases need to be presented in court, we push the ones that directly and efficiently serve our clients’ interests without involving them in long, drawn-out procedures, which—though legally successful—may not make sound business sense.

At VG Lawyers, our priority is to remain at the cutting edge of legal developments and provide top-quality, expert legal services with a sense of practicality. We strive to protect our clients from the maze of legal procedures, which only serve to exhaust them and hinder their business objectives.

We take pride in our work and enjoy collaborating with our clients!

Why Clients Choose Us

We understand our clients’ needs and provide them with top-quality, personalized services at a reasonable cost. We think creatively, avoiding involving our clients in drawn-out court procedures. Believing in prevention, we offer practicable solutions. We do not try to take the place of the entrepreneur, nor do we adopt the legal advisor’s detached approach from the goings on of the business world. We are willing to participate in a strategic legal planning, while assessing and analyzing potential legal risks.

Words from Clients

“VG Lawyers is obviously one of the best law firms to SETEC’s knowledge in the field of FIDIC contracts, construction, design and PPP contracts. SETEC started its collaboration as Independent Engineer with C. Vrettos in Greece more than 10 years ago on Olympia Odos, one of the most challenging motorway concession projects. This collaboration was renewed in the CERN Hilumi project in Switzerland designed and built under Fidic red book, and then to another Independent Engineer agreement signed with Lamda Development in Athens for the most prestigious urban development in Europe. It has been a great privilege for SETEC to benefit from C. Vrettos’ professionalism, acute analysis and fruitful advice in all situations.”

Pierre Vicedo
SETEC TPI, ex Directeur Général
SETEC TPI Greece, Director

“I met Mr.Constantine Vrettos when concluding an agreement for supervision services and technical advice between OTEestate, a subsidiary company of OTE Group and a client of his. His focus on understanding the business aspirations of both parties, and the scientific thoroughness with which he approached the above cooperation, proposing at the same time workable solutions and aiming for the best possible result, impressed me and laid the foundation for a fruitful and productive collaboration for the next few years that followed.”

Christini Spanoudaki
Ex CEO OTE ESTATE
Executive Director of Corporate Real Estate Management OTE Group

“Our top-notch consulting engineer firm, based in Greece with an international presence, has worked closely with VG Lawyers for more than 20 years. They efficiently deal with our firm’s cases on the competitive international scene, where we are active, combining legal expertise with an understanding of business needs.”
