Senior-led legal advisory for corporate structures, transactions and strategic decisions.

I work with entrepreneurs, investors and executive teams on complex legal matters that sit at the core of business decision-making: corporate structuring, transactions, real estate and employment.
I am a senior business-oriented lawyer with 20+ years of experience in corporate, M&A, real estate, tax structuring, and cross-border legal risk management.
Former top-tier law firm background (PwC Legal – David & Baias), followed by 15+ years in executive, in-house leadership roles as Head of Legal / General Counsel for international groups.
Recognized for designing and managing complex multi-entity corporate structures, advising boards, shareholders, and C-level executives on strategic transactions, governance, investments, and risk, and acting as a true business partner, not just legal support.
Engagements may take the form of: clearly defined, project-based mandates, or ongoing advisory arrangements (external general counsel), depending on complexity, timing and business objectives.
We can start either led by a specific need of yours or from a pre-set framework.
For growing businesses seeking clarity, structure and risk control
A focused legal assessment designed for SMEs and international businesses to identify key corporate, contractual and employment risks and to provide a clear, actionable roadmap for decision-makers.
For companies preparing for investment, acquisition, exit or restructuring
A pre-transaction legal review aimed at identifying deal-critical risks, addressing red flags early and ensuring the business or asset is properly prepared for due diligence and negotiations.
For management teams operating with complex or growing workforces
A preventive legal framework designed to protect employers against employment-related risks, covering individual/collective contracts, internal policies and sensitive management decisions.
For complex transactions and high-impact business decisions
Senior-led legal advisory for M&A transactions (share and asset deals), corporate reorganizations and group structuring, real estate transactions and development projects, cross-border investment and expansion projects.
My practice is intentionally focused and selective. I work with a limited number of clients at any given time, allowing me to remain closely involved in each mandate and to provide tailored, high-quality legal support.
Legal advice translates into clear options and consequences, enabling informed business decisions.
Well-designed legal frameworks reduce friction, prevent disputes and support scalable growth.
Every mandate I take on is handled at senior level, with direct involvement from start to finish.
I treasure and build long term partnerships, based on full trust and confidentiality.
I have developed and work closely with a selected network of top tier senior professionals—including notaries, tax advisors, valuation experts, technical consultants and financial advisors—validated through long-term collaboration on complex projects in Romania and internationally.
Where required, this network is engaged on a project-specific basis, while coordination, strategic oversight and legal responsibility remain fully centralized.

Legal perspectives and updates on business law developments
RO e-Proprietate is a centralised system designed to integrate all real estate data in Romania, enabling greater transparency and supporting a shift toward market-based property taxation. Its real impact lies in increased visibility over ownership, valuation and tax exposure, requiring businesses to align their structures and data in advance.
Read MoreEU is preparing a new optional corporate framework (EU Inc.) designed to reduce legal fragmentation across Member States. It will not replace national company laws, but will offer businesses the possibility to operate under a single, harmonised set of rules at EU level. While key areas such as taxation and labour law remain national, the initiative aims to simplify incorporation, governance and cross-border scaling. For businesses, this signals a structural shift: from navigating multiple legal systems to potentially relying on a unified corporate layer across the EU.
Read MoreHolding structures allow profits to be reinvested at corporate level before taxation is triggered at shareholder level, subject to statutory conditions. They are particularly relevant for businesses with growth or exit strategies, enabling more efficient capital allocation and increased structuring flexibility, while requiring careful consideration of substance, compliance and long-term objectives.
Read MoreAML red flags in real estate transactions arise from inconsistencies between the client, the structure, the financial flows and the asset. Under Romanian law, reporting obligations are triggered by suspicion, not certainty, making economic rationale and internal judgment key elements of compliance.
Read MoreUnder Romanian Social Dialogue Law no. 367/2022, employers with at least 10 employees/workers are required to engage in collective bargaining. The obligation concerns the negotiation process itself, not necessarily the conclusion of a collective labour agreement. In practice, employers should focus on timing, lawful employee representation and proper documentation of the process.
Read MoreCorporate governance is shifting from a formal compliance function to an operational and strategic tool. Driven by regulatory developments, ESG integration and digitalisation, companies are expected to strengthen oversight, improve decision-making structures and align governance with business strategy.
Read MoreReal estate due diligence is a legal risk assessment process, not a checklist exercise. It focuses on title, encumbrances, zoning, construction legality and transaction structure, and has become increasingly important in light of recent legislative changes affecting residential developments.
Read MoreLaw 207/2025 materially reshapes the legal mechanics of the off-plan sales in Romanian residential projects. Pre-sale agreements are now conditioned on prior cadastral individualisation of future units, authenticated pre-unitisation and controlled use of purchaser advances through dedicated project accounts. The reform shifts the market from early-stage plan-based pre-sales toward a cadastre-first model, with direct implications for development timelines, financing structures and transactional risk allocation.
