Local and multinational companies count on Kinstellar for employment advisory counsel relating to Romanian law, and the firm’s robust litigation offering lends its expertise to contentious matters in the practice area. The department has been boosted by the firm’s absorption of Noerr‘s Bucharest office in September 2024. Clients appreciate Lidia Zărnescu, who specialises across employment and labour law, social security and dispute resolution. Since publication, former department head Remus Codreanu departed the firm.
