bpv Grigorescu Ştefănică advised the chain of dental clinics DENT ESTET and its founder, Oana Taban, in signing the agreement by which the medical market leader in Romania, MedLife, acquired a majority stake in the DENT ESTET group of companies.

Alina Melcescu (Senior Associate) and other members of bpv Grigorescu Ştefănică were also part of the advising team.

We are happy that we were part of a transaction that brings together two groups that are the top players of their markets. This is an important milestone in a long term collaboration with DENT ESTET and we are honoured that we had the opportunity to support them again this time, through our legal expertise, in their efforts of developing their business.", explained Cătălin Grigorescu.

"bpv Grigorescu Ştefănică’s contribution was key in in this transaction, whose success also depended on the professionalism, flexibility and timeliness of the lawyers in this team. The legal support we received was, as always during our long collaboration, doubled by a thorough understanding of the challenges and business opportunities of the market in which our company activates, which reconfirmed that we have trustworthy partners alongside.", added Oana Taban, CEO and founder Dent Estet.
