Persi’s practice spans a broad range of matters across civil and commercial law, including contractual liability, tort claims, professional and medical liability, commercial and residential lease disputes, matrimonial and family law, real estate transactions and disputes, as well as inheritance and succession matters. She has extensive experience in both civil and criminal litigation, representing corporate and private clients before Greek courts at all levels. She also advises on enforcement proceedings, debt recovery, interim relief measures, and disputes arising from commercial relationships and complex contractual arrangements.

In terms of sectoral expertise, Persi regularly advises and represents clients in both contentious and non-contentious matters in the Hotels & Leisure, Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals, and Insurance sectors. Her work in these industries includes handling insurance coverage disputes, liability claims, regulatory matters, and contractual arrangements with suppliers and service providers, as well as litigation involving hospitality operators, medical service providers, and pharmaceutical companies. She has developed particular expertise in insurance matters over the past two decades, further reinforced by her role between 2008 and 2010 as supervisor of the liquidation of what was then the second-largest Greek insurance carrier. She also undertakes mandates in Construction and Real Estate Development, advising on disputes arising from construction contracts, contractor and developer liability, property development agreements, and real estate investment structures.
