Andreas Neocleous & Co LLC (Limassol)

Firm Description

The Firm

Andreas Neocleous & Co was established in 1965 by its Managing Partner, Andreas Neocleous. The firm has grown steadily and is now one of the largest in south-east Europe and the Middle East. Its head office is in Limassol, which is the commercial centre of Cyprus and the home of many international companies.

Cyprus

The island`s geographical location, at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa, makes it easily accessible to foreign clients and foreign participation in its economy is officially encouraged. Tax incentives and a high standard of living have led to the development of Cyprus as an important financial centre with first-class telecommunications and professional services, and there is a growing awareness among many foreign companies and individuals of the unique advantages of using Cyprus as a business base. All these factors have contributed to the growth and status of Andreas Neocleous & Co. as an international law firm.
