KBVL Law Firm

What KBVL Law Firm does

KBVL Law Firm (Koimtzoglou-Bakalis-Venieris-Leventis & Associates Law Partnership) is a Greek law partnership founded in 2017 and headquartered in Marousi, Athens. The firm operates as the sole Greek member of Deloitte Legal, an international network of more than 1,750 legal professionals across 75+ countries, and serves enterprise clients including Greek corporates, foreign investors, multinational corporations, banks and other financial institutions, energy sector companies, real estate investors, family businesses, and high-net-worth individuals. KBVL has grown to more than 40 lawyers organized across practice groups covering antitrust, banking & finance, bankruptcy & restructuring, commercial law, corporate, energy, family business governance, intangibles/data & technology, M&A, people law, real estate, and tax litigation.

The firm combines traditional legal counsel with technology-enabled delivery, having invested in AI and legal-tech tools for M&A due diligence, document automation, contract lifecycle management, workflow management, and predictive legal analytics. KBVL operates two distinct technology-focused service lines: a Legal Technology & Innovation unit offering generative AI applications for legal research, drafting, summarization, and self-service legal platforms, and a dedicated AI Law practice advising on EU AI Act compliance, risk assessment, and AI governance frameworks. The firm has also developed proprietary advanced data analytics tools for antitrust concentration assessment, with particular application to retail-sector merger clearance. These tools are positioned to accelerate transaction execution and reduce manual document review rather than to substitute legal judgment.

KBVL generates revenue through professional services fees, including hourly billing, fixed fees for specific matters, and retainer arrangements for ongoing client relationships. Client acquisition is driven primarily by direct partner-led engagement, professional reputation, and cross-border referrals from Deloitte Legal member firms. The firm is recognized by IFLR1000, Chambers Europe, and The Legal 500, and was the exclusive Greek contributor to Chambers and Partners' Global Practice Guide on Alternative Energy & Power for 2023, handling landmark tax cases influencing Council of State jurisprudence and restructuring mandates for Greek national champions including Hellenic Shipyards and LARCO.
