Prica & Partners

Drawing on Tradition, Inspired by the Future: With over 120 years of legal excellence, Prica & Partners traces its roots to Dr Ilija Prica, who began his legal career in 1900 — a legacy now led by Managing Partner Mihajlo Prica, representing the fourth generation of legal leadership. This remarkable continuity positions us as the independent commercial law firm with the longest-standing tradition in Serbia and the wider region.

Over the decades, we have cultivated extensive institutional knowledge and a deep understanding of both local and international legal and business landscapes. From pioneering Serbia’s early foreign investment projects to advising on today’s most complex cross-border ventures, our continued presence at the intersection of legal innovation and economic development reflects a lasting commitment to excellence and progress.

Prica & Partners Today: Prica & Partners is a full-service commercial law firm with a well-established reputation for advising both Serbian and international clients, guided by an unwavering client-first approach. As Serbia’s first law firm to specialise in foreign investments and corporate legal advisory, we have played a central role in shaping the modern commercial legal landscape.

Our cohesive team of over twenty legal professionals operates as a true partnership, combining deep legal expertise with industry-specific insight to deliver pragmatic, innovative, and results-oriented solutions. Clients trust us to solve complex legal challenges swiftly and strategically, safeguarding their commercial interests and supporting their long-term goals.

We provide a comprehensive range of legal services across all core sectors of business law, including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures and restructurings, privatisations and concessions, real estate and infrastructure projects, dispute resolution and international arbitration, competition/antitrust, banking and finance, employment and labour law, and intellectual property.

We are committed to the values of professional integrity, mutual trust, and tailored legal service. Our clients value our rapid responsiveness, meticulous due diligence, and consistent excellence, whether in high-stakes negotiations, regulatory guidance, or court and arbitral representation.

Regional Reach and Strategic Alliances: Our legal expertise extends beyond Serbia into Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, enabling us to serve clients across the Western Balkans with precision and consistency. As a member of the Lawyers & Friends – SE Legal Network, we offer seamless cross-border support through a trusted alliance of top-tier law firms based in Slovenia, Croatia, and North Macedonia, all aligned with internationally recognized standards of professionalism and ethics.

Furthermore, our strong connection with Italy is reflected in two key collaborations. Through our Best Friend Collaboration with KEIS Law, a prominent Italian law firm, we provide seamless cross-border legal support between Serbia and Italy, particularly for European clients exploring business opportunities in the Balkans. In parallel, our active membership in Confindustria Serbia reinforces our role in supporting Italian enterprises operating locally. This engagement not only facilitates investment and business operations but also fosters long-term commercial cooperation between the two countries.

We are also proud of our close cooperation with renowned international law firms who consistently rely on our expertise for their clients’ matters in Serbia and the region.

Legal Community and Industry Engagement: Prica & Partners maintains active involvement in both the legal profession and the wider business community. We are long-standing members of several chambers of commerce, which we use as platforms to connect with business leaders, engage in dialogue on industry-specific challenges, and remain attuned to issues that directly affect our clients’ operations.

In addition to these memberships, we participate in a number of industry-related organisations. This engagement provides our lawyers with regular opportunities to exchange insights with key industry players and stay ahead of legal, regulatory, and economic developments, both locally and across Europe. These connections not only strengthen our understanding of market trends but also enhance the strategic advice we offer to our clients.
