Praised for its ability to ‘easily navigate the complexity of the legal system’, Musat & Asociatii’s banking and finance department makes for a reliable choice in a number of areas, including financial regulatory matters, acquisition and leveraged finance, and fintech. The ‘proven experience’ of ’very pragmatic’ co-head of the practice Monia Dobrescu is an advantage to her client base, which includes a host of international banks. Fellow practice head Răzvan Stoicescu has a similarly international crop of clients, and support to the practice heads comes from Cristian Cepesi and Robert Urmosi.
