Pharmaceutical

Both multinational pharmaceutical corporations, as well as local companies active in this sector, constantly face a number of challenges on the regulatory and compliance, transactional and contentious fronts. In fact, the Greek market is no stranger to complex and ever-changing laws and regulations in the pharmaceutical and health care sector.

Acting for some of the biggest pharmaceutical players the world has to offer, the lawyers of our Pharmaceutical practice are well-versed in the intricacies of Greek and EU Pharmaceutical law and have had great success in dealing with all relevant fields.
