Zamfirescu Racoți Vasile & Partners (ZRVP), one of the leading Romanian law firms, extends its footprint on the Romanian legal market by adding Dumitrescu Băjenaru Oancea (DBO, www.dbo.ro) into its operations starting with January 1^st, 2020. The consolidation will boost the firm’s headcount to 65 lawyers, out of which 13 partners, and 30 staff members.

Andrei Dumitrescu, Mihai Băjenaru and Robert Oancea (of counsel) join ZRVP’s management team as partners.  

“In a legal market during an era of spin-offs, ZRVP is the only leading Romanian law firm grown out of a merger. We have been breeding top lawyers in the last 24 years and have evolved and developed our capabilities with the help of our own trained teams. Now it’s time to add external forces to our operations and to strengthen our ability to handle large projects. Starting with January 1^st, 2020, ZRVP will integrate DBO, creating a powerful team of 65 lawyers able to meet more effectively the significant increase in demand we are seeing in all practice areas, as well as the ever-growing challenges of the business market. I am positive that the future will reflect the favorable outcome of the step we are taking now”, said Cosmin Vasile, managing partner of ZRVP.

This consolidation adds experienced lawyers to the teams in the area of litigation, insolvency, tax, administrative law, general corporate, real estate, agribusiness, environmental law and construction law, increasing the strengths of the firm across practice areas.

“The project we have developed in the last 10 years has been following the general trends of the market, allowing us to seize the benefits of the particularities a small-sized law firm has to offer: fostering a close relationship with our clients and developing long-term partnerships with our stakeholders. This transaction supports the growth strategy and the goals set for the team coordinated by Mihai Băjenaru and me. Hence, the decision to join ZRVP is, past all doubt, the best decision to make.”, added Andrei Dumitrescu.
