Administrative & Public Law

We have a diverse administrative and public law practice and we are often retained by public sector bodies and private sector parties. This has enabled us to accumulate experience and practical knowledge in a wide range of sectors, which have overlapping regulatory and administrative law issues and concerns, such as utilities, financial institutions, transportation and energy organisations. Our expertise includes acting for governmental departments and public authorities, corporations and professional associations, administrative boards and commissions, as well as individuals in the following areas:

• Judicial reviews
• Customs and excise
• Environmental licencing
• Coastal laws and regulations issues
• Town planning
• Statutory interpretation
• Disciplinary proceedings
• Appointments or promotions of civil servants in the public sector

Our team has acted on behalf of the Government of Cyprus, various municipalities across the island, public organisations such as the Youth Board of Cyprus, the Housing Finance Corporation, the Larnaca Water Board, the Larnaca Tourist Board and we regularly advise regulated businesses on possible public consultation obligations relating to policy changes. As new legislation, regulations and policies impact upon the commercial objectives set by businesses and public bodies it is our goal to offer broad advice covering all business activities and sectors regulated under Cyprus law, provide representation before all Cyprus courts and tribunals and provide advice to facilitate successful relationships between our clients and their respective regulatory authorities.
