Criminal defense lawyer in Bucharest
Criminal law is the core practice area of this office: from the first contact with the investigating authorities to the final level of jurisdiction.
What criminal defense actually involves
A criminal case does not begin in the courtroom. It begins with a summons, a search, an interview — moments in which decisions taken without legal assistance can weigh more heavily than everything that follows. The role of the defense is to be present from the very first moment.
I provide assistance and representation at every stage of Romanian criminal proceedings:
- Criminal investigation — assistance during questioning (including before the DNA and DIICOT), filing motions and memoranda, challenging preventive and precautionary measures;
- Preliminary chamber — verifying the lawfulness of the indictment, the evidence and the investigative acts; exclusion of unlawfully obtained evidence;
- Trial and appeal — evidentiary strategy, examination of witnesses, written and oral submissions;
- Extraordinary remedies — annulment appeals, revision, appeal in cassation.
Areas of specialization
The practice covers corruption offenses, tax evasion, money laundering, cybercrime, offenses committed in office, fraud against creditors, drug trafficking and organized crime.
For foreign clients
If you are a foreign national or a company facing criminal proceedings in Romania, the earliest possible involvement of counsel matters even more: procedural deadlines are short, documents are in Romanian, and the first statements often shape the entire case. Communication in English is available throughout, including for confidential channels.
