Konstantinos D. Bitsios

I was born in Karditsa in 1972 and have been living in Athens since 1990, where I practice law and engage in professional, social, political, and other activities. I attended the 1st High School of Karditsa and hold a degree from the Faculty of Law of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (1996).

​

I specialized in European Criminal Law, Community Law, and Maritime Law at the Faculty of Law of the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, where I received a Certificate of Specialization in 1995. I also studied journalism at the Laboratory of Professional Journalism, from which I graduated in 1999. I am fluent in English (Proficiency, 1994).

​

I have been a member of the Athens Bar Association since 1998, and in 2001 I founded my own law firm. I have been practicing active litigation since 1993, with substantial experience in Immigration Law (as a founding member of the Hellenic Association of Immigration and Migration Law – E.D.A.M.), in Civil Law, with a focus on “over-indebted households,” as well as in Data Protection (GDPR).

​

My law office is based in Athens, with the capacity to handle cases throughout Greece, covering the relevant travel and accommodation expenses where required. In addition, I undertake cases in Karditsa, Corinth, and Kefalonia. For these three regions, my services are provided by appointment, without any charge for accommodation expenses.

​

In 2024, I was a proposed candidate for the European Parliament with SYRIZA – Progressive Alliance in the Attica Region.

On January 25, 2016, I registered the first Civil Partnership for same-sex couples in Greece, for myself and my husband—a landmark act carrying significant activist weight for the promotion of equality. In 2024, I achieved the recognition of the first adoption by a same-sex couple in Greece, contributing to a historic step forward in legal and social progress.
