Legal Services in Motru

About this service

Legal services cover advice, drafting documents, and representation before courts or authorities. In practice, the most requested work is: advice on a specific situation, drafting and reviewing contracts, incorporating and amending companies, debt recovery, employment disputes, family law, inheritance, property disputes, and challenges to administrative fines. The professions are strictly regulated: a lawyer is registered with a bar association and can represent clients in court, a public notary authenticates documents and settles estates, a bailiff enforces judgments, and an in-house legal counsel advises only one entity, their employer. Choosing the right professional depends directly on the document or procedure you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to challenge an administrative fine?

As a general rule, a challenge is filed within 15 days of the report being handed over or communicated. Because the deadline is short, check it with a lawyer immediately for your specific situation.

How long does a court case take in Romania?

It varies widely: a straightforward case at first instance can take 6-12 months, and with an appeal it can reach two years or more. Timelines depend on the court, the evidence, and the number of parties.

Is it worth trying to settle?

Almost always. A settlement or mediation costs far less than litigation and concludes in weeks rather than years. A lawyer can tell you whether your position is strong enough to negotiate from.

Can I recover legal costs if I win?

The court may order the losing party to pay costs, including the lawyer's fee, but it also has the power to reduce that fee if it considers it disproportionate to the complexity of the case.

What does assistance with setting up a company involve?

Drafting the articles of association, the declarations, and the trade registry documents, checking name availability, defining the business activity, and filing the application where required. Official fees are paid separately from the professional fee.

Can this be handled online, without travelling?

For advice, drafting, and document review, yes. Court representation and documents requiring notarial authentication do, however, require attendance, in person or by power of attorney.
