Built for people who need more than a name and a phone number.
Verified advocates
Every advocate is confirmed against Cyprus Bar Association records before listing. No self-claimed credentials — only verified CBA membership and an active practising licence.
Your advocate keeps their full fee
Advocata never takes a percentage of legal fees. The platform charges a fixed fee, so pricing stays honest on both sides.
Structured intake, not a contact form
Tell us your situation before you book. The advocate reviews your request and confirms they can help — so the first hour counts.
Three steps from question to counsel
No cold-calling firms, no opaque retainers. Find the right advocate, book a time, and meet on the platform.
Search
Browse verified Cyprus advocates by practice area, language and fee. See clear scope and rates before you commit to anything.
Book
Choose a time that suits you and confirm your booking. You know the price and the scope of the consultation up front.
Consult
Meet your advocate by secure chat, voice or video. Receive a written summary of advice and next steps afterwards.
Legal help that respects your time and your budget
Whether you are relocating, forming a company, or navigating post-2022 banking requirements in Cyprus, get advice from an advocate who explains things plainly.
Residency and relocation
Guidance on permanent residency, work and residence permits, and relocation steps. Advice on the rules and process, never guarantees of an outcome.
Company formation and banking
Set up a Cyprus company correctly and prepare for bank account opening — the most complex step, where KYC requirements have tightened significantly since 2022. Your advocate knows what documentation banks actually require.
Real estate
Due diligence on title, contracts and transfers so a property purchase does not become a legal problem.
Compliance and corporate structure
UBO declarations, sanctions screening, ongoing corporate obligations and the compliance questions every expat business owner faces. Ask before it becomes a problem.
Every advocate is verified before they ever meet a client
Trust is the product. We check credentials so you do not have to, and we are explicit about how your data is handled.
Cyprus Bar membership
We confirm active membership of the Cyprus Bar Association and a valid practising licence before an advocate is listed.
Identity and credentials
Each advocate completes a verification step. Profiles show only what has been confirmed, never self-claimed credentials.
GDPR-aligned data handling
As an EU-facing platform, Advocata is built around GDPR principles: lawful basis, data minimisation and your right to access and erasure.
Secure, EU-grade infrastructure
Bookings and messages run on secure infrastructure with access controls. Privileged legal advice belongs in your consultation with the advocate, not in platform chat.
Transparent pricing, no hidden fees
You see the price of a consultation before you book it. Advocates keep their full fee. Advocata charges a fixed platform fee, never a percentage of legal work.

No subscription required to get advice. Each advocate publishes their rate and the scope of the consultation, so you always know the cost before you confirm.

Advocata is an EU-facing platform built around GDPR principles. We collect only the data needed to deliver the service and you can request access to or erasure of your data.
