Every spring, AKL proudly opens its doors to welcome law students of all academic years as part of the “Lawyers at Work” initiative — a truly inspiring event organized by ELSA Athens.
Our Partners, Associates, and Trainees step away from their daily work to engage with students, offering insights into life at a law firm. We discuss the challenges and rewards of the legal profession today, explore current trends, and aim to illuminate the path forward for aspiring lawyers.
This year’s visit began with a warm welcome and a presentation from our Partners, who shared the history of AKL — a firm with roots dating back to 1891 — and spoke about the qualities we value in a future junior associate.
Representatives from each of our distinguished departments — Dispute Resolution, Real Estate, Banking & Finance, and Corporate — offered an overview of their practice areas and helped students understand the fundamentals of each field.
In line with our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility, we were honored to host Choose Life, an organization dedicated to raising awareness about bone marrow donation. The organization’s coordinator shared the importance and simplicity of becoming a donor — a message that resonated strongly with the students, many of whom volunteered to give a sample on the spot.
We would like to congratulate ELSA Athens for this wonderful inititiative and thank them for making us a part of it!
