Professional Recognition and STEP Service, 2024 to 2026
From Evi’s Desk | Evi Papacleovoulou | Cyprus Law Chambers
A Note on Professional Recognition
Checked: 30 July 2026
Recognition is not a substitute for careful legal work. I include the following items as attributed professional milestones and not as claims about outcomes, success rates or superiority over other lawyers.
STEP Cyprus
Evi Papacleovoulou, TEP, was elected Vice Chair of STEP Cyprus in March 2024. STEP's current public Branch Officers page lists her as Branch Vice Chair of STEP Cyprus.
2024
• Tax Expert of the Year in Cyprus, Leaders in Law Global Awards 2024/25.
• Expert of the Year in Cyprus for Real Estate Law, Advisory Excellence Annual 2024 Awards.
2025
• Real Estate Law Expert of the Year in Cyprus, Advisory Excellence Annual Awards 2025.
• Leading Real Estate Lawyer of the Year 2025, Cyprus, Acquisition International Leading Adviser Awards.
2026
• Real Estate Law Expert of the Year in Cyprus, Leaders in Law Global Awards 2026.
• Real Estate Law Leadership Award 2026, Global 100.
How These Items Are Presented
Each recognition is attributed to the issuing publication. Some award publishers also offer optional paid editorial, trophy or promotional packages. These references are not presented as independent rankings by a court, regulator, the Cyprus Bar Association or a governmental authority.
Only recognitions supported by a final publication, listing, completed award asset or clear confirmation have been included. Other proposed immigration, tax and real estate titles remain excluded until their exact wording and public status are confirmed.

Information Notice
Why the professional context matters to the client
Professional recognition is relevant only where it helps a client assess experience, public service, specialist involvement and the standards applied to the work. It does not replace a matter-specific scope, legal analysis or evidence.
The useful takeaway is the connection between professional roles and the practical way Cyprus property, business, succession and cross-border matters are organised and delivered.
This page records professional roles and attributed recognition as at 30 July 2026. It does not constitute legal advice or a promise of any result.
