In the field of criminal law, SCPA ‘Coste & Ioanid’ law firm’s professional and meticulous approach consists of a slightly different strategy in order to respond with maximum efficiency to our clients’ requests in relation to various specific issues in criminal law cases.

Our expertise has been built on cases in which the most vigorous procedural actions, such as pre-trial detention, are contested, up to very complex matters that are too easily qualified as criminal offences by the judicial authorities.

We provide legal assistance and representation for both aggrieved parties and suspects or defendants.
