Why deep understanding - not templates - wins complex deals
In a market that often prizes speed and polish, we choose depth. Transactional law at Masouros + Partners is not a race to the next template - it is a discipline of careful reasoning, clause by clause, consequence by consequence. That is how we safeguard outcomes for clients investing in Greece, from luxury hospitality to technology, energy and finance.
Transactional law, practiced deliberately
Many deals are driven by model documents and automated workflows. We take a different path. Every provision in a share purchase agreement must be reconciled with Greek law, its purpose tested, and its effects explained, in plain language, before it ever bears your signature. That is the work. And it cannot be outsourced to formatting or “redlines” alone.
“Not to submit to the automation of transactional law, but to fully understand every word of every clause.” - Pavlos Masouros, Managing Partner
Our team is intentionally small and flexible. We invest in lawyers who thrive outside their comfort zone and stay with a transaction end-to-end. The objective is not volume. It is clarity, accountability and results. Clients have noticed; many found us through recommendations after seeing this approach in practice.
The Road we walk on
We see the firm not only as a place of work, but as the Road we walk on - a commitment to represent clients with respect, to show up with our best, and to support one another without compromise. Talent matters, but so do dedication and a sense of duty; we look for both when we invite a colleague to join us.
“Our office and the practice of law is the Road on which we walk.” - Pavlos Masouros
Academic rigour, commercial poise
Our practice is rooted in scholarship as much as it is in execution. Pavlos Masouros serves as Assistant Professor of Corporate Law and M&A at Leiden Law School. Teaching and research keep us current on legislation and case law - habits that directly elevate the day-to-day advice our clients receive.
This blend - quiet discipline, academic depth, and practical judgement - has been recognised internationally and, more importantly, has helped clients close complex, cross-border transactions with confidence.
Greece’s M&A moment. And what comes next
Greece has seen a pronounced rise in M&A in recent years. Asset values, post-crisis opportunity and international capital are converging. With this comes change: more foreign advisers entering the market, institutional expectations on governance and risk, and a reshaping of how corporate law is delivered locally. We welcome high standards and transparent structures; they make deals better and businesses stronger.
We are independent by choice, but we are also pragmatic: If collaboration with an international brand would let us serve clients better, without diluting our principles, we will explore it. Duty first; labels second.
