English-speaking lawyers in Lamia

Lamia is the capital of Fthiotida in Central Greece, a farming region with many villages whose emigrants settled abroad decades ago. Their children and grandchildren often look for English-speaking lawyers in Lamia when family property needs attention.

The usual tasks are accepting an inheritance, registering property with the Hellenic Cadastre, clearing inheritance tax and selling or dividing a family plot. Lawyers also deal with residence permits, divorce and rural land disputes. Property deeds are signed before a Greek notary, and the local courts conduct proceedings only in Greek. Old village houses sometimes carry unpaid property tax, which must be settled before a sale.

The Lamia Bar Association keeps the roll of local lawyers. A power of attorney signed at a Greek consulate lets your lawyer act while you stay abroad. English-speaking lawyers in Lamia should set out fees and timing in writing at the start. Compare the firms below and contact them directly.
