About

Provided by Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații

Tuca Zbarcea & Asociatii offers legal advice on the application of full scale competition law matters including antitrust, domestic and cross-border transactions (mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures etc.), as well as State aid. Our lawyers have successfully advocated for clients’ rights before the national competition authorities, as well as in litigation before the judicial courts in a variety of disputes. Moreover, we developed a practice in the competition compliance (e.g. prior assessment of potential exposure, training programs) helping clients in avoiding sanctioning pursuant to breach of competition laws.

Furthermore, our lawyers specialised in a large number of unfair competition matters, supporting clients’ cases both in front of relevant authority, as well as in court.
