Mr Esquire After greetings My name is Mostafa and I am Egyptian. I want to inquire about the establishment of a limited liability company in Cyprus. Its activity is import and export. I have an import and export company already. Is the establishment of a new company in Cyprus better than a branch of the company? What procedures, costs and advantages can be obtained. Sorry for the delay. With thanks and appreciation

Hi, My father of Greek/Cypriot origin owned a business in Limassol, Cyprus for over 30 years. The land which this business was built on was owned by the Turkish government (Merimner.. I think) which was allocated and the ownership of the building was in my Father's name. Unfortunately my father passed away suddenly in April 2000, since this time I have applied and attended the offices in Limassol to claim and transfer over the ownership into my name which for some reason has been prevented from happening. I am still unable to find out whom I need to speak with, or even where to start and would like to know what I can do to gain what was legally my right in transferring the land over into my name. For over 17 years now I have been prevented from inheriting what I feel was rightfully mine. Could you please advise if this is something that I could learn more about or if there is a case to be opened regarding this. Many thanks, Chris

Dear Sirs Does an employee have to agree with a termination notice letter if not proper reasons were given??? The contract only states: 12.1. Subject to the following, the company may terminate the employment by giving to the employees one month notice. 12.2. The company reserves the right, at its discretion, to terminate the employment immediately without giving the period of notice to above by paying the employee her basic salary in lieu of all part of her notice period as the case may be. Can the employer terminate the contract without any reasons? Thanks

مرحباً، لدينا حصص في عقار في قبرص - ليماسول وعليها بناء، ونحن نملكه إرثاً عن والدتنا القبرصية التركية وأرغب بمتابعة أمور عقارنا القانونية.

Dear Sir/Madam I have recently been moved to Cyprus by a company which offered me a salary of 1600 euro + first months deposit money. On the 7th of may, I arrived, and on the 21st, they sacked me. On the 20th, I put a deposit down for a place (while employed). Now the company only wants to pay me for the 1 week I worked and it's refusing to pay me my first month's deposit but I signed the agreement that stated I'm entitled to a 500 euro worth of a deposit. I'm really looking for advice before I say anything wrong.
