What Is Civil Law and What Is Its Scope of Application
Civil law is a fundamental branch of private law and governs relationships between private individuals, that is, between both natural persons and legal entities.
Its fundamental principle is the autonomy of will, according to which the parties are free to shape their legal relationships within the framework established by law. In Greece, the main legislative framework is the Civil Code, which comprises 2,035 articles and establishes the rules governing matters such as contracts, property, family relations, and civil disputes.
The scope of civil law is particularly broad and directly affects the daily lives of citizens and businesses, as it regulates every form of transaction and legal relationship. Its main branches include contract law, property law, family law, and inheritance law, while its general principles form the foundation for all areas of private law.
At Nexus Law Firm, we believe that strategic legal guidance is crucial both before entering into a legal relationship and after a dispute arises, as it helps prevent risks, protect assets, and safeguard the rights of the parties involved.
