Private Client review:
As a foreigner in Paphos, I had several rather unsatisfactory experiences with lawyers. So when I was buying an apartment in Paphos, I researched reliable lawyers. A family friend recommended the law firm Savvas Savvides to me. From the first meeting to the signing of the purchase agreement, I was impressed by the professionalism and attentiveness of the firm. This applies to Mr. Savvas himself and his staff. Thanks to our collaboration, the process was smooth and stress-free. In a nutshell, I consider the Savvas Savvides law firm to be the best in Paphos.

Private Client review:
Savvas was recommended to me by a family member at a time when we, as a family, had many real estate matters to deal with in Cyprus. Being a fellow solicitor I was struggling to instruct a lawyer in Cyprus which I felt could provide reliable advice as well as someone I could trust. Savvas has now been acting for the family for over 5 years and I can honestly say that he is brilliant. He has acted in relation to 2 probate matters (so far) and has provided some other pieces of real estate advice and I wouldn't look anywhere else. His communication style is great, always incredibly responsive and very commercial with his suggestions. He is compassionate and goes the extra mile to provide value for money. His thinking is second to none and he is also faultlessly professional - a real credit to his firm. Thank you Savvas.

Savvas Savvides is an excellent lawyer who won the trust and respect of individuals, companies, large organisations, governmental authorities and countries who value his work ethic, dedication and passion on what he does best. Acting on behalf of his clients, offering the best possible solutions and adequate advice. He is often characterized as a 'leader without title' by many of his colleagues and associates as he never stops to inspire and aspire everyone around him. He leads by example and demands excellence out of respect towards each and every client, colleague or associate.

It is the second time in 3 years Mr Savvas Savvides assisted me with a real estate transaction, this time a property sale. Due to travel restrictions and the slightly unusual profile of the counterparty, the transaction was complex, and completed to a large degree thanks to the the skills and patience of Mr Savvides. In the end, closing the transaction was predicated on trust, and I can vouch for Mr Savvides in this respect.

Mr. Savvas Savvides was recommended to me in 2017. He helped me in securing my Title Deeds after many years of trying to obtain them. In 2020, I sold my property in Cyprus and returned to the U.K. Savvas guided me through the whole process which ran very smoothly. He acted very professionally throughout and I have no hesitation in recommending Savvas and his company.

Savvas has helped me with my legal issues in Cyprus for a number of years now. I have found him helpful, responsive and reliable. Any issues arising out of my not being resident in Cyprus were resolved by him with a pragmatic and helpful approach. I would not hesitate to recommend him to any private client needing legal presentation in Cyprus.

Private Client review:
We were recommended to engage the services of Savvas SAVVIDES to represent us in our claim against the mis-selling of our Swiss Franc mortgage. From our first meeting with Savvas it was evident he was professional and competent. He filled both myself and my husband with confidence and even though our case is still ongoing he has kept us fully updated with the proceedings and has provided reassurance when we were unsure. We are aware that Court proceedings may not go the way we want them to, but we have every faith Savvas is working in our best interests to ensure the best outcome for us. We have no hesitation in recommending him and his colleagues who have also been just as professional.

I was a Private overseas Client but that posed no issues. Communication was frequent, detailed and if logistical issues surfaced suggestions to overcome these were quickly and efficiently provided.

Savvas Savides was recommended to us regarding a property in Cyprus. He has just finalised a legal case which has been going for over 10 years and throughout has been knowledgeable, professional and extremely understanding of my situation. He has excellent communication skills and kept me regularly up to date with the progress of my case. I couldn't have done this without him. Highly recommended.

We have been dealing with Mr Savvides for quite a number of years now, both face to face and by email/telephone communication. We have found him to have the height of professionalism and courtesy towards us. He is currently working on a case with us which we have confidence will be resolved to our satisfaction because of his knowledge, communication skills and his desire to achieve the best outcome for his clients in a very practical and pragmatic manner. Mr Savvides has always guided us wisely and we very much look forward to concluding our business with him in a positive manner.

We could not recommend him highly enough and really appreciate everything he has done for us.

Private Client review:
Over the course of the last eight years Mr Savvides has acted on my behalf on various issues, which have required a great deal of attention to detail in order for me to have been protected from any untoward complications. These range from house buying, transfer of my interests in that house at a later stage to another person, the conformity of my marriage and also the legal staus of my current wife as she is not an EU national, and is currently arranging a citizenship application in Cyprus for my wife. His professionalism is beyond any doubt, and everything he has handled for me, he has kept me informed at every stage. My confidence in Mr Savvides in handling my affairs gives me the peace of mind that I currently, and consistenly have had from the very beginning.

Mr Savvas Savvides was recommended to us when we were looking for an English speaking lawyer to assist and guide us with the purchase of a property in Cyprus.
He was able to guide us through the process, and was always professional in his approach. He dealt with the contract (ensuring we were well protected), and also with the developers and architects, and his team also assisted us with our VAT application.
He and his team were in regular contact with us by email or phone and were always polite and honest and kept in touch.
We have also used Savvas for the writing of our wills.
I would have no hesitation to recommend him to anyone who appreciates professionalism, honesty, knowledge, communication skills and customer satisfaction. Thank you Savas for all your help.

Having known Savvas since 2003 we have built up a strong working relationship and throughout that time he has shown an unwavering commitment and service to all his clients be they buyers or vendors.
He has a vast knowledge of Real Estate Law here in Cyprus, which at times can be complex and trying, and whenever I have questions, he has always got time to talk or got back to me in a more than timely fashion.
With his leadership he has created a friendly office and positive working culture unlike any law firm I have seen.
With all this in mind, he has a great attitude, he is pleasant, always gracious and professional

Private Client review:
I have known Savvas Savvides for over 4 years, initially through a business to business relationship and subsequently, through engaging his services to deal with a personal legal matter.

My initial experience with Savvas was on behalf of a local radio station (where I was working). We wanted a reputable and professional lawyer to provide informative weekly radio slots advising British expatriates on legal matters in Cyprus. Michael Kyprianou LLC and in particular, Savvas Savvides, came highly recommended and for over 18 months, Savvas conducted weekly sessions providing information on various issues affecting our listeners. I have always found Savvas reliable, knowledgeable and extremely professional. He has excellent communication skills and was extremely popular with our listeners.

I have now engaged Savvas on a personal matter involving our rental property in Cyprus and he has provided valuable advice and is efficient in not only dealing with matters for me but also keeping me up to date with progress.

I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Savvas and his company.

Mr Savvas Savvides was recommnded to us during a purchase of residential property in Paphos. Upon selecting the property we had to leave Cyprus and entrust the transaction to Savvas, communicating with him by email or telephone. His services were top quality, and he definitively earned our trust. After the transaction completion Savvas remains our lawyer and also, in our absence, a trusted contact in Cyprus in terms of ongoing bank and property issues. I would have no reservations to recommend Savvas for legal representation: he is not only very competent and professional but also pleasant and easy to talk to.

Mr.Savvas was our advisor for all our needs including investment, legal, statutory requirement etc... for many years. We are very much satisfied with his service and integrity in dealing with any client request. Now who ever needs any support in Cyprus we recommend him for the service and I think he had many clients from UAE through us which we will continue to do so as you can expect quality service.
On another note, he always wears a second hat as a good friend and maintains the relationship all the time which is well appreciated.

Private Client review:
In early 2008 I read an article in local weekly newspaper about a young lawyer practicing in Paphos, who had successfully solved a case related to an unusual real estate issue, similar to our problem. I immediately contacted Mr Savvas Savvides, and we promptly arranged a meeting. Mr Savvides demonstrated interest in our problem, and my wife and I decided to entrust the case to this young lawyer. At that time he was already a partner in the law company Michael Kyprianou and Co LLC, and was already the Head of its Paphos Branch. I am pleased to say that since then he is our family lawyer, conducting all of our legal affairs. He is a very smart, and well educated lawyer and devoted to his job. We have frequently followed his advice, at the same time he was always open to our suggestions, always with mutual respect which is where he has gained our absolute trust. And very important, in spite of numerous obligations, he always finds time to discuss the issues with us and the attending lawyer. We are happy with the cooperation and relationship we have with Mr Savvides. Our very best recommendations for him.

He maintains his expertise in the law and keeps abreast of changes in legislation and always makes sure that he protects his clients interests. We have recommended Savvas to many people and will continue to do so without any hesitation or reservations.

My husband and I were first introduced to Mr Savvas Savvides in 2005. He helped us to buy property in Cyprus and since then has been there to successfully guide us through a dispute that finished up in court proceedings. In recent times he has supported me after the death of my husband and is dealing with all the legal aspects of this. Over the years Mr Savvides has progressed within Michael Kyprianou & Co LLC and his responsibilities and work load have increased but he always finds the time to guide us through the complexities of the legal system here.

Case Studies

Representing an Embassy on Real Estate Legal Matters in Cyprus

One notable Case of many, is Savvas’ representation of a Foreign Embassy on a very important Real Estate transaction in
Cyprus. The nature of the transaction required a comprehensive due diligence process and the preparation and
examination of various legal agreements to protect the best interests of the Embassy. We needed to guarantee that
all Authorities in Cyprus would apply the same Embassy exemption law concerning tax payments and an application
was made to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to provide a written confirmation. We also represent the Embassy on the
Renovation and Structural Works related to the property.

International representation of an Embassy in Cyprus

Mr Savvides was appointed from the official diplomatic corps to legally represent a Foreign Embassy in Cyprus of very high-profile country, in regard to an important Real Estate and Construction transaction which required his extensive knowledge and expertise in the area. Mr Savvides managed to protect the best interests of the Embassy and its country as an official representative showing excellent preparation in the examination of various legal matters while providing detailed due diligence procedures. In addition, he managed, in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus and the Tax Authority to secure the legal right of tax exemptions based on the law while he is still representing the Embassy in other matters related to the property, since he has gained the trust and the respect of the officials who often contact him for advice and consultation.
