Senior Associate
Career
Andrada joined RTPR in 2014, as early as she was admitted as a member of the Bucharest Bar. She is focusing her dispute resolution practice mainly on competition, unfair competition and intellectual property cases. Andrada is a litigator with a robust corporate background: she provides full-path legal assistance in these fields, also representing clients in investigations of the competition authority and proceedings before the IP authority. She has prominent expertise in cases with an EU law dimension and particularly, involving referrals to the European Court of Justice.
Andrada represented Zenith Media Communications in a competition dispute in which the RTPR team has recently obtained a historic victory at the Court of Justice of the European Union, thus contributing to the creation of EU law through a win regarding the principles of how the fines applied by the competition authorities in all Member States are calculated. In another successful mandate she obtained a preliminary ruling of the CJEU regarding the clarification of the “consumer” concept for unprofessional investors trading on financial instruments platforms, which will contribute to a more predictable framework for trading and to the development of EU law. Her recent domestic dispute highlights include (i) a competition litigation victory entailing the reduction of a nearly EUR 8 million fine to below EUR 500,000, upon dismissal of the last extraordinary appeal, and (ii) an award of over RON 3.2 million by final ruling, for an IT client in a niche turnkey software valuation dispute.
