Adamantia Giannakis

Exceptional guidance on a complex commercial lease negotiation

Our firm engaged Adamantia Giannakis at Kirkland & Ellis to handle a high-stakes commercial lease negotiation for a new flagship location in Manhattan. Despite her relatively short tenure, Ms. Giannakis demonstrated a command of New York real estate law that was immediately impressive. Her background from Boston University School of Law and the recognition she's already received in real estate law were evident in her meticulous approach. She anticipated every counterpoint from the opposing counsel, protected our interests on critical clauses around build-out costs and exclusivity, and navigated the complex city regulations with precision. Her professionalism was matched by a personal commitment to keeping us informed and confident throughout the tense process. The final agreement was not only favorable but strategically sound for our long-term growth. We would not hesitate to recommend her expertise.
