- 'The lawyers are very proactive and successfully integrate legal expertise with strategic thinking. Their approach provides a sense of confidence and reliability We value their accessibility — partners remain closely involved throughout a matter.'
- 'A particular strength is their ability to draw on the wider PwC network, which gives them an edge in cross-border transactions and complex structuring matters. Compared with other firms, they stand out for being collaborative and very easy to work with.'
- 'The lawyers I have worked with have been approachable, clear in their communication and consistently business-minded. Partners take an active role and do not disappear once the engagement has started, which is refreshing. Associates are diligent, detail-focused and well prepared.'
- 'PwC Bulgaria’s commercial, corporate and M&A practice combines strong technical expertise with a very practical and commercial approach. What I have valued most is the way they align legal advice with business objectives, which makes their support highly relevant and usable. They are well resourced, quick to respond and keep matters moving without unnecessary delay.'
- I worked with Krasimir Stephanov - a very reliable and responsible person. He always picked up his phone to answer my questions, and he was there when I needed him to answer my newbie questions and describe the process of raising money. As a result, he not only delivered on what we needed, but I came out with great knowledge about the process.
