Kinstellar

More informationMore information

Local and multinational companies count on Kinstellar for employment advisory counsel relating to Romanian law, and the firm’s robust litigation offering lends its expertise to contentious matters in the practice area. The department has been boosted by the firm’s absorption of Noerr‘s Bucharest office in September 2024. At the helm of the practice, Remus Codreanu stands out for his expertise in dispute resolution but has a broad advisory practice in employment law too. Clients appreciate the ’great double act’ he makes with Lidia Zărnescu, who specialises across employment and labour law, social security and dispute resolution.
