Cleero & independent network

Personally led. Independently strengthened.

Cleero is the sole proprietorship of Achilleas Pliakas. For selected legal matters, Cleero works with lawyer Carolin Locher as an independent cooperation partner. Roles and responsibilities remain clearly separate.

Achilleas Pliakas

Achilleas Pliakas is the first point of contact for businesses and guides clients through a clear process from the initial conversation to implementation. His background in luxury retail, sales and personal client service shapes his standard: listen closely, reduce complexity and deliver reliably.

“After every conversation, the client should know exactly what happens next.”

Independent legal cooperation

Legal expertise without mixing responsibilities.

Caro is a visible member of Cleero’s independent network while remaining legally, commercially and operationally separate as a lawyer.

Carolin Locher

Carolin Locher works with Cleero on selected legal matters as an independent cooperation partner. She is neither an owner nor an employee of Cleero. Legal advice is provided only under a separate engagement directly with Carolin Locher.

Separate engagement

Carolin independently decides whether to accept a legal matter and defines its scope.

Separate fees

Legal services are not sold through Cleero or billed jointly with Cleero services.

Separate files

Cleero has no access to legal files without the client’s explicit instruction.

Independent responsibility

Confidentiality, conflict checks, liability and legal assessment remain with Carolin.

“Good legal advice creates clarity rather than additional uncertainty.”

What guides us

Our work follows clear principles.

01

Clarity

We explain requirements in a way that enables decisions.

02

Responsibility

We are open about what needs clarification, implementation or legal assessment.

03

Proportionality

The solution must fit the risk, size and everyday reality of the business.

04

Confidentiality

Information is handled minimally, purposefully and with clear access controls.

Working model

Connected through a network. Clearly separate in responsibility.

Achilleas coordinates Cleero services only. Where an individual legal assessment is needed and the client requests it, Cleero may introduce Carolin. Carolin independently decides on the engagement, scope and legal assessment; a Cleero engagement never creates a legal mandate automatically.

Your next clear step

Know where you stand. Then act with confidence.

Tell us briefly where you stand. We will be open about what matters and which next step makes sense.
