The team at Chrysses Demetriades & Co Law Office is adept at advising on a broad spread of dispute resolution. Led by Demetris Araouzos, the department often acts on complex international and domestic matters, often for leading Cypriot corporations, in commercial and civil litigation, and is also recognised for its capabilities in contentious administrative matters. The group's varied workload includes advising on freezing injunctions and other interim procedures, which often relate to high-value arbitrations or foreign court proceedings, as well as enforcements and recognition of foreign arbitral awards and court decisions. In addition, the team is often instructed to act in appeals before the Supreme Court. Katia Kakoulli has extensive experience in corporate litigation, and often works with major international firms on arbitrations.
