“In terms of real estate, I recommend Silviu Stratulat, Tudor Ciambur and Daiana Assoum. Silviu is an exceptional partner with a client-centric approach and practical knowledge that few lawyers possess. He works with highly competent real estate lawyers such as Tudor or Daiana, both of whom have a great knowledge and understanding of the task. They are highly engaged and well prepared and demonstrate a unique blend of excellent legal perspectives and social skills. “We have mainly worked with Iustinian Captariu on issues related to public procurement rules and their interpretation, finding new but sustainable approaches to solving the problems we have encountered with the contracting entity (contracting authority). Iustin has generally offered us credible solutions and is considered a reliable source of good ideas. We skim over many issues beyond him, but not exclusively legal issues. “STALFORT`s lawyers have a high level of professional competence, a wide range of experience, which is nourished by concrete legal proceedings. Thanks to their extensive legal and cross-cultural expertise on the specific circumstances of each country (and the similarities and differences with Germany – in our case), the lawyers were able to propose tailor-made solutions to our challenges. The lawyers` emphasis on balancing economic requirements, social aspects and finding legally compliant and sustainable solutions has been exemplary. The interaction with each other was always polite, polite and diligent. “There are very few law firms that can support technology companies in Romania.

Tech companies in general, and startups in particular, have esoteric needs for most law firms. Technology companies usually have multiple entities in different regions, they need option plans, organize investment rounds of companies in different jurisdictions, etc. DLA has a team of specialists in various fields: from business structuring to intellectual property and tax analysis. Working with DLA feels natural. We speak the same language, work with the same concepts. Unlike other companies where any of these topics seem strange. Second, DLA is part of a larger group. Working with DLA San Francisco for all US-specific issues was fast and the synchronization between the local office and the US office was as I expected. “Very good knowledge of aspects of building law, well prepared with regard to the specificities and services of our company. Roxana Fratila knows all the details of our company, understands the behavior of the management team and knows the culture of the company, which creates real flexibility between us and creates trust. In addition, the answers and the solution are faster. “Immediately reachable by phone/e-mail.

Excellent legal advice. Short and accurate conversations. “I worked with Maiju Klemola on different subjects, big and small. Maiju`s knowledge of the technology sector and related legal issues is deepened. If necessary, she was able to advise as quickly as possible without compromising quality. Maiju`s ability to provide on-site advice and her case management skills have helped us tremendously. “Vladimir Cizek is really a very experienced partner and operates with an owner mentality. He is very knowledgeable about legal issues and is extremely good at negotiating. It works very efficiently, even under high time pressure. He is an expert in orchestrating transactions between many parties. “We are always happy to work with small companies that provide the same quality services as large ones, like Volciuc-Ionescu does. We have no comparison with any other law firm in Romania, but our impression of Volciuc-Ionescu is very good.

As part of our collaboration, we are leveraging Volcius-Ionescu`s legal knowledge and experience, which we believe will make our clients a stronger part of the transaction. “Eversheds is a very reliable partner for us in various R&D, IPR, SALES AND JOINTLY FUNDED PROJECTS AND RELATED CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS. In most cases, we get professional and accurate advice and are explained directly to our project managers and sales staff, without having to involve our own member of the legal team in the same case. “Pierstone has extensive experience in the field of personal data protection under the GDPR and other relevant legal acts. Thanks to their specialized knowledge, you receive the service at a high level. “Good experience, pragmatic approach to negotiation, good understanding of legal and tax implications and SOP structures. “Costin Taracila – the best individual M&A lawyer in Romania (his advice goes beyond the natural limits of legal work); Alina Stavaru – a very strong M&A lawyer (very business-oriented and able to provide solutions to complex problems); Roxana Ionescu and Andreea Burtoiu (stronger than senior ranks in other law firms). “Ioana Roman supports in this area. Very involved in understanding the context of legal files, with a proactive attitude and a great negotiating ability, she accompanies internal legal teams and real estate teams to obtain the best results in all subjects. “You have extensive professional experience in the higher league of Romanian legal counsel.” “In legal matters, it is very important to know that there is a professional, well-trained and experienced team that can support and advise you in the correct and fastest solution of your case. By working with Schönherr, we can be sure that our interests will be protected and represented in the best possible way thanks to its wide range of experts and its many years of experience in various fields. In addition, they are able to represent companies from different business areas and deal with issues based on the specific details of each area. We could easily and honestly say that with Schönherr you can find integrated solutions to specific problems.

Last but not least, we have always found the will to support and advise, no matter the complexity of the subject or the time! The country`s legal sector remains largely unchanged. Anecdotal reports suggest lower fees and staff reductions at larger firms, but this should not hurt clients, who will always benefit from a good selection of high-quality firms in an exceptionally competitive legal market. The largest independent companies are Nestor Nestor Diculescu Kingston Petersen, Tuca Zbârcea & Asociatii, Popovici Nitu Stoica & Asociatii, Musat & Asociatii, Zamfirescu Racoti Vasile & Partners and Filip & Company.

The Big Four accounting firms also offer strong legal arms, including Reff & Associates SCA (Deloitte) and D&B David si Baias SCA (PwC). “We are very pleased to have been working with Lexia for several years, for example in complex contractual areas as well as in areas of employment law and data protection. Lexia`s competent responsiveness and quick support, combined with its legal professionalism, are highly appreciated by our company. bpv Grigorescu Stefanica enjoys a good reputation in the market, especially among customers who appreciate “extremely helpful and competent, efficient and fast advice”.
