    Georgaki & Partners is a boutique law firm specializing in Greek immigration, investment migration, and tax-efficient relocation solutions for international individuals and families.

We welcomed Christina Georgaki, Founder and Managing Partner of Georgaki & Partners, to The Golden Quarter Show. Christina shared her journey as an entrepreneur and legal advisor, and offered a grounded perspective on why Greece continues to attract global capital and talent. Key takeaways from our discussion: • Greek Golden Visa evolution: Despite investment thresholds having gone up, Greece remains one of Europe’s most compelling residency-by-investment options when structured correctly. • Non-Dom Greece: The flat-tax regime is a powerful tool for high-net-worth individuals seeking lifestyle, predictability, and tax efficiency within the EU. • Entrepreneurial journey: Christina shared the story of building a law firm focused on FDI which now is equipped with over 30 lawyers, her goals and ambitions, and commitment to develop the next-gen of lawyers • Lifestyle meets strategy: Greece offers more than residency—it delivers culture, quality of life in a secure EU nation and a growing international business ecosystem.
