The firm’s director, Nikos A. Rotsides trained for the Bar Vocational Course at the Inns of Court School of Law and in 2008 he was called to the Utter Bar of England and Wales by Lincoln’s Inn. During his stay in the UK, Nikos accepted offers from City Law School and from Cass Business School and taught law as a visiting lecturer at a graduate and undergraduate level.
Nikos returned to Cyprus in 2008 where he has been practicing in private practice ever since. In his years of practice as a Cyprus Lawyer he has handled a plethora of cases and has managed to achieve an excellent track record and a remarkable reputation amongst the public and his peers. During his years of practice, before focusing exclusively in personal injury compensation law, Nikos acquired a wide breadth of experience before Cypriot Courts acting as head litigator in diverse Court cases ranging from murder to multimillion commercial disputes to complex medical negligence claims.
Nikos set up N. Rotsides & Co L.L.C. in 2011 and in the next few years focused his litigation practice in personal injury and compensation law, working together with clients that have suffered injuries in order to recover their fair compensation for their pain and suffering. Due to his expertise, he is regularly appointed by other law firms to provide expert reports in relation to Cyprus personal injury law matters and he is regularly invited to contribute with articles and lectures on his field of expertise.
