Mergers & Acquisitions

Deals done right. From first contact to closing.

Transactions are won and lost in the detail. We provide end-to-end M&A counsel for acquirers, sellers, management teams, and financial sponsors — across domestic Romanian deals and cross-border transactions involving Romanian targets or assets. From initial deal structuring and due diligence through SPA negotiation, regulatory filings, and post-closing integration, we are present at every stage. Our focus is singular: getting the deal done on the best terms available — and ensuring nothing in the legal documentation creates a problem after closing.

Our Approach

We are advisers, not administrators. Our role is to give you a clear commercial position, identify the issues that actually matter, and drive the transaction forward — not slow it down. We move at deal pace and we tell you exactly where we stand.

What We Do

Full-cycle M&A services — from deal origination and structuring to closing and beyond.

Deal Structuring & Strategy

Advising on acquisition and disposal structures — share deals versus asset deals, tax-efficient structuring, holdco arrangements, and the legal implications of different transaction frameworks under Romanian law.

Legal Due Diligence

Comprehensive legal due diligence reports covering corporate structure, contracts, employment, IP, real estate, litigation, regulatory licences, and environmental matters — tailored to what actually matters in each deal.

SPA & APA Negotiation

Drafting and negotiating share purchase agreements, asset purchase agreements, and ancillary transaction documents — representations and warranties, indemnities, conditions, and closing mechanics — from term sheet through to signing and completion.

Regulatory Approvals & FDI

Managing competition authority clearances, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) screening procedures under Romanian and EU rules, sector-specific regulatory approvals, and merger control filings — coordinated across jurisdictions when required.

Joint Ventures & Shareholders' Agreements

Structuring and documenting joint ventures, consortium arrangements, and shareholders' agreements — governance, profit distribution, transfer restrictions, exit mechanisms, and deadlock resolution provisions.

Private Equity & Venture Capital

Legal support for PE buyouts, minority investments, and VC transactions — investment documentation, management incentive arrangements, portfolio company governance, and exit structuring including trade sales and secondary transactions.

Cross-Border Transactions

Romanian law lead counsel on cross-border M&A — coordinating with international counsel, navigating multi-jurisdictional due diligence, managing parallel regulatory processes, and ensuring Romanian law positions align with the broader transaction structure.

Post-Closing & Integration

Supporting buyers through post-closing integration — corporate restructuring, merger of entities, statutory filings, transfer of licences and contracts, management of completion accounts and earn-out mechanisms, and W&I insurance claims.
