General Criminal Law

Maria Rousi graduated from the Faculty of Law with a focus on economic and social issues at the Free University of Brussels.

She enriched her background by working as a lawyer in a general law firm in the Democratic Republic of Congo, an experience that allowed her to broaden her perspective and develop great adaptability.

Back in Belgium, Maria registered with the Francophone Bar of Brussels in 2023. After practicing in civil law, she chose to specialize in general criminal law as well as business criminal law, areas for which she has a strong affinity.

Her atypical background allows her to adopt a comprehensive and nuanced approach to the cases entrusted to her.

The matters she handles include homicides, assaults, thefts and extortions, receiving stolen goods, drug offenses, criminal conspiracy, organized crime, and human trafficking.

Maria is fully dedicated to defending her clients in all aspects of criminal law, representing both the accused, the defendants, and the victims before the competent courts. She also assists suspects, victims, and witnesses during Salduz hearings, thereby ensuring the respect of their fundamental rights.

Practicing daily in traffic law, she defends her clients before the police courts, offering sharp expertise in this specific field.

Bilingual in French and Greek, she is able to meet the needs of a diverse clientele.
