STOICA & ASOCIAȚII celebrated three decades of professionalism and performance

The law firm STOICA & ASOCIAȚII celebrated 30 years of activity at an anniversary event held on November 4 in the "Le Diplomate" hall of the InterContinental Athénée Palace Bucharest Hotel. Over 300 guests—clients, partners, collaborators, and friends of the firm—joined the STOICA & ASOCIAȚII team to mark three decades of professionalism, integrity, and excellence in the practice of law.

Since 2007, on the occasion of its anniversaries, STOICA & ASOCIAȚII has awarded the Excellence award for the entire legal career, a distinction given to outstanding figures in Romanian law in recognition of their contribution to the development of legal culture and the consolidation of the values of the rule of law.

In recognition of exceptional legal work and unwavering integrity, on the occasion of its 30th anniversary, STOICA & ASOCIAŢII decided, by unanimous vote of its partners, to award the Anniversary Prize for Scientific Work to Professor Marian Nicolae, PhD, from the Faculty of Law of the University of Bucharest. "With modesty and perseverance, passion and rigor, encyclopedic knowledge and fidelity to the moral values that underpin the law, Marian Nicolae has developed, over a period of more than three decades, an impressive body of legal work, establishing himself as a true scholar of our time," argued the partners of STOICA & ASOCIAȚII in their letter of motivation for awarding the legal prize.

In its anniversary year, STOICA & ASOCIAȚII is marking three decades of activity with a special editorial project: the launch of the collective volume "Real Estate Development and Urban Planning. Legal Comments and Studies" coordinated by Andreea Stoica and Dragoș Bogdan (Managing Partners).

The work brings together the contributions of the firm's lawyers and offers a broad perspective on the field of real estate and urban planning in Romania – from the constitutional protection of property rights to the civil legal regime, aspects of financing and developing real estate projects, property valuation, and dispute resolution through judicial or arbitration means.

Previewed to guests at the anniversary event, the volume reflects STOICA & ASOCIAȚII's academic stature, its commitment to in-depth legal research, and its vocation to contribute to the evolution of law in Romania.
