Popovici Nitu Stoica & Asociatii‘s dispute resolution group is one of the standout offerings from the full-service firm, regularly assisting with major matters across corporate and regulatory disputes, commercial claims, and contentious real estate and construction issues. Arbitration and other forms of alternative dispute resolution are also within the wheelhouse of the practice. Jointly overseeing the team are Florian Nițu, the key figure for international arbitration at the firm; and litigation leader Ciprian Donțu. Camelia Patrascu, who was promoted to the partnership in January 2024, is an up-and-coming name to note; and Ilinca Ștefănescu’s wide range of litigation expertise is a further boon to the practice. Raluca Petrescu is a name to note for construction law and contractual disputes, and Alexandru Ciacoi supports on the range of civil and commercial litigation.
