Greek ancestry can support a citizenship case, but the route depends on nationality history, family events and records linking each generation. Recognition or registration is not the same process as naturalisation. Start with a legal family timeline, not a passport application.
Read the sourced greek citizenship guide and detailed articles.
The initial discovery call identifies the issue and whether the firm can assist; it is not a full document review or an approval decision. A requested time is not booked until confirmed. Any further legal work requires an agreed scope and fee, with public fees, translations and other third-party costs identified separately.
Some tasks can be carried out under a suitable power of attorney. Required interviews, biometrics and other personal formalities still depend on the procedure. Tell us about imminent deadlines at the outset; submitting the form does not extend them.
No. The relevant citizenship history, relationship chain and legal route must be established. Some cases require registration; others require a different procedure.

Request an initial 20-minute discovery call, or send a brief outline of your situation. The firm will confirm availability and the scope and fees for any further work. An enquiry does not create a lawyer-client relationship.
For an imminent deadline, telephone the office. Do not rely on the enquiry form to protect a deadline.
