Greek Australians named among South Australia’s top young criminal lawyers

·

Adelaide barristers Alex Panousakis and Christina Chrisakis have been listed among South Australia’s top young criminal lawyers, committed to defending clients with professionalism and care.

Panousakis, 35, inspired by Lindy Powell KC, recalls acting as junior counsel in the Jason De Ieso murder case as a career highlight.

He values cases where advocacy can influence merciful sentences and help clients at their lowest points.

Christakis, 32, of Patsouris and Associates, was drawn to criminal law by a desire to help people.

With nine years’ experience, she gained crucial insights as a District Court Associate and continues to advocate for clients while learning from senior counsel nationwide.

Both demonstrate the dedication and skill of South Australia’s emerging criminal law leaders, combining legal expertise with empathy to support clients through challenging cases.
