Legal services in Romania
A local perspective on business, disputes and personal matters. Explore the legal system and the rules relevant to your next decision.
Understanding Romania.
Romanian legal work combines national codes, sector legislation and EU rules with distinct registration and supervisory procedures. The SRL company structure, land-book system, immigration processes and specialist regulators each require their own documentary and jurisdictional analysis.
Jurisiti can coordinate Romanian matters with local counsel and partner support, organising the facts, records and approval questions before a transaction or claim proceeds. These guides focus on official national sources and practical distinctions, including CEISD screening, ANRE permissions, notarial succession and the current employment-visa process.
The legal system
Romania is a civil-law jurisdiction with Civil, Civil Procedure, Labour and Criminal Procedure codes supplemented by specialised statutes and emergency ordinances. Official consolidated texts and commencement provisions should be checked alongside applicable EU law.
Laws & official sources ↗Discuss a Romania matter ↗36 legal fields. One jurisdiction.
Courts & procedure
Romanian courts handle civil, commercial, criminal and administrative matters through the relevant jurisdictional structure. Notaries, enforcement professionals, mediators and specialist bodies such as CNSC perform additional roles. The claim and statutory procedure determine the appropriate forum and preliminary steps.
Litigation & representation ↗European connections
Romania is an EU and Schengen participant. European rules coexist with national procedures and sector approvals; Schengen travel does not itself authorise employment, and EU market access does not eliminate Romanian investment screening or regulated-activity requirements.
European frameworks ↗These guides provide general legal information. The operative law, deadlines, professional permissions and scope of work are confirmed for the particular matter. Representation is arranged through appropriately authorised local practitioners.
