I was born into a Russian-speaking family of Pontic Greeks, and I know this file from the inside. If one of your ancestors was Greek, the case usually stands — and when it doesn't, you'll hear that from me in the first fifteen minutes.

About
Anna Feodoridi
A Thessaloniki lawyer of Pontic Greek descent, raised in a Russian-speaking family. Law degree, Aristotle University, 2012. I've worked with the authorities of Northern Greece ever since — and I know which paper which desk wants, and when.
I don't speak legalese where plain words will do. I'll explain what each step means, what can go wrong, and where your time and money are actually worth spending.

I'd been refused once and had given up. Anna found what the file was missing, we re-submitted, and the permit came through in four months.
Residence permit · Kalamaria
★★★★★
Grandfather from Pontus, papers scattered across two countries. It took eighteen months, but I knew where we stood at every moment.
Citizenship by descent · Thessaloniki
★★★★★
I was buying a flat and the check turned up a charge the agent 'didn't know about'. She saved me far more than her fee.
Property · Pylaia
★★★★★
We talked in Russian, signed in Greek, and I understood every paragraph. That was the whole difference.

Questions
What people ask most
Do I need to come to Thessaloniki?
For most steps, no. With a power of attorney I file on your behalf. You need to appear in person for biometrics and a few appointments — I tell you that up front, not halfway through.
How long does a residence permit take?
The filing certificate is issued immediately and is itself lawful residence. The permit usually takes 4–10 months, depending on the type and the office's backlog.
What documents will I need?
It depends on the type, but the base is the same: passport, proof of address, insurance, finances. After the first call I send a list built for your situation, not a generic one.
How is the fee calculated?
Fixed per case, in writing. State fees and translations are listed separately and in full — they aren't buried inside the fee.
Do I qualify for citizenship if my grandfather was Greek?
Often yes, but documents decide it, not family lore. Send me what you have and I'll tell you whether it stands, before you pay anything.
What language will we work in?
Whichever suits you: Greek, Russian, Ukrainian or English. Documents are signed in Greek, but you'll know what every paragraph says.
