Kitsios, LLC

What Kitsios, LLC does

Kitsios, LLC is a full-service law firm headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus, founded in 1985 by Andreas Ioannou Kitsios as a sole practitioner practice. The firm converted to a lawyers' limited liability company (A.I. Kitsios LLC) in 2009 and rebranded to KITSIOS,LLC in 2025 to coincide with its 40th anniversary. The firm operates from a single Limassol office at 44 Emmanuel Roides, Kirzis Center, Block D, Office 15, and serves both corporate clients (ranging from local companies to multinational corporations) and individual high-net-worth clients across 11 practice areas: Banking and Finance, Civil Fraud and Injunctions, Corporate and Commercial, Employment, Financial Crime, Financial Services Regulation, IP/Data and Technology, Litigation and Dispute Resolution, Private Client, Real Estate, and Tax.

The firm's revenue model is professional services fees generated through negotiated, per-engagement billing for legal advice, representation, and document preparation. As of 2020, the firm employed 7 professionals, including three family-member partners — Founder Andreas Ioannou Kitsios, Partners Christoforos Ioannou Kitsios and Socrates Ioannou Kitsios — alongside legal consultant Eleni Papanastasiou (with the firm since 1988) and associates such as Pythagoras Kalyfommatos. The firm has been a member of the Interlegal Network since 2018, providing access to international legal expertise and cross-border referral pipelines in 30+ countries, and has cultivated additional credentials through International Bar Association (IBA) and STEP memberships.

The firm has no proprietary technology platform, software products, or AI capabilities. Its go-to-market is sales-led and reputation-driven: client acquisition relies on professional referrals, the Interlegal Network, and analyst recognition. The firm has earned Legal 500 EMEA recognition including 'Firm to Watch' designations in 2024 (Dispute Resolution and Real Estate) and 2025 (EMEA), and a Tier 3 ranking for Real Estate and Construction in 2026, alongside Recommended Lawyer status for partner Christoforos Ioannou Kitsios. The firm is regulated by the Cyprus Bar Association (Reg. No HE 250702).
