English-speaking lawyers in Romania for foreign clients
A large part of our clients live outside Romania or are foreign companies doing business here. We work with them in English or French, from the first message to the final court decision or signed contract.
Most matters can be handled without travelling to Romania. We sign the legal assistance contract with you remotely, and on that basis your lawyer represents you before Romanian courts, the Trade Register, land registry offices, ANAF and the immigration authorities under the lawyer's power of attorney (împuternicire avocațială). A notarised power of attorney is needed only when documents must be signed in your name, for example a notarial deed.
Foreign clients usually come to us for:
- Company formation in Romania and buying a shelf company
- Real estate lawyers in Romania: land book checks, due diligence and sale-purchase contracts
- Immigration lawyers in Romania: work and residence permits, family reunification, Romanian citizenship
- Divorce and inheritance with a foreign element, and recognition of foreign judgments (exequatur)
- Debt collection and litigation against Romanian companies

I’ve worked with RoLegal for six years, and their service has been excellent from start to finish. When I first considered doing business in Romania from the UK, I had some concerns about transparency and trust. However, those worries were completely unfounded. Doing business in Romania has actually been better than in the UK in terms of trust, transparency, and value for money. Special thanks to Marcela and Darie, who were both incredibly helpful throughout the process. I highly recommend RoLegal, whether you’re local or international. Their service is truly top-notch!
I had a very good experience with Darie, Manea and Associates law firm. My lawyer, Oana Darie, was very skilled at dealing with the ANRP through the various hurdles on the way to the successful conclusion of our case. She was also very helpful in assisting with complications that arose with the transfer of funds overseas. I highly recommend the firm and especially Ms. Darie for her exceptional expertise in resolving restitution cases.
I hired Darie, Menea, and Associates to assist me in creating my Romanian company in 2024 and they were very helpful. This year, they assisted me in getting my Romanian residency. I'm Canadian, and with their help it was incredibly easy, and very affordable. I will be using them for all of my legal needs going forward and I highly recommend.

Yes. We work in English, French and Romanian. Documents in other languages are handled with sworn translators.
