William Mitchell requires short annual residencies of a few days.

Syracuse has yet to get ABA approval but it appears they will also require residency.

I have a hard time believing that even a good education in United States law would be acceptable for practicing law in a country with a completely different legal system, but admittedly I don't know anything about Greece's legal credentialing   

Uh, good luck with that.

I would assume that the degrees and/or credits could be brought over and evaluated like any other degree. So long as the individual has a law degree from a legit international university and can pass the bar, I doubt the ABA would throw a fit.

The ABA could care less about you taking your non-ABA credits to Greece, that's definitely true. You might be reading his/her plan backwards.

I think that jsd meant whatever equivalent to the BAR Greece has and not the actual US BAR.
In that case, yes, the ABA is unimportant. It is up to the committee appointed by the Greek government to recognize the full degree or classes (credits) off it.
If the degree is legit, the worst case senario is that you will be sent to the Greek Law School to do 2-3 semesters. Not a big deal, you only have to worry about transportation fees and coffee.
