Went Above and Beyond

What impressed me about Mr. Kiosses is that even in a consultation, he didn't just give me enough breadcrumbs for me to hire him or to cut me loose if it were unprofitable. He actually helped me and spelled out what I needed to do to solve my problem. He answered my questions thoroughly and I left th...e meeting feeling that Mr. Kiosses was honest, competent, and would go above and beyond if I hired him. I have since talked to some friends and relatives who know him or of him and they have affirmed that he is an attorney one can absolutely trust to take care of Greece-related business.

Obtaining Greek Citizenship

My husband’s parents are of Greek origin and he always wanted to obtain citizenship but never had the time to collect the documents that were necessary! I researched attorneys in the US ( we live in Dallas, TX ) and finally came across Christos’s excellent reviews. I reached out to him and initiated ...the process! He stated that if we were dilligent enough to collect all the necessary paperwork and send it over, my husband should get his passport within a year. Once submitted, Christos flew to Atlanta ( my husband was born there and his parents were married there) completed the necessary steps. After that, he was off to Greece to register my husband. All we did was travel to the Greek consulate in Houston, TX to complete the application. And today, my husband became a Greek Citizen! Mr. Kiosses is extremely professional and executed all the necessary tasks within the timelines he presented to us. He is prompt in responding to emails or taking calls with no appointments! He was extremely easy to work with. I had my doubts in the beginning seeing we reside in another state but that did not make a difference at all to Mr. Kiosses who was very efficient. Knowledgeable in Greek laws and very courteous! I recommend him with 5 stars!!! Thank you Mr. Kiosses! Sincerely, Mona & Andrew

Excellent

Mr. Kiosses is a true professional. He was very knowledgeable and helpful on my international citizenship matter and made every effort to advise me in a fair way and timely way. I would highly recommend him in his area of expertise without any reservation.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
