Antonis Georgiou successfully defended his client in a complex and multimillion-dollar case involving conspiracy across multiple countries. The claim accused the defendants of orchestrating a scheme to hide assets and defraud the plaintiff. Antonis Georgiou effectively cross-examined the evidence presented by the opposing party, dismantling their claims of conspiracy.

The court ruled in favor of his client, dismissing the conspiracy allegations and reinforcing his client’s position. This victory was particularly significant as it involved intricate international elements and complex financial transactions.
