Lawyer & Mediator

Practice Areas

As both a lawyer and a mediator, I offer you a full range of legal services. I recommend that you first try to resolve the dispute through mediation and only resort to court proceedings if mediation does not succeed.

Why try mediation before going to court?

Mediation is not just a softer alternative to litigation — in many situations it is the most intelligent choice from a financial, procedural and human perspective. Here are five concrete reasons, backed by law:

  1. 01

    Save money, time and stress

    A successful mediation saves you money and time, and — above all — relieves you of the stress specific to any litigious situation. The procedure is confidential, flexible and takes place in a professional setting focused on resolution, not confrontation.

  2. 02

    Proof of good faith

    Even in the less fortunate event that mediation does not succeed, you will have proof that you attempted to resolve the dispute amicably — an aspect that weighs significantly before the court and demonstrates your good faith.

  3. 03

    Risk of bearing court costs

    If you initiate proceedings directly, without proving that you first tried to put the other party in default, the defendant may acknowledge the claims at the first hearing — in which case they cannot be ordered to pay court costs (Art. 454 Civil Procedure Code). You would win the case but bear the costs alone.

  4. 04

    Agreement ratified by the court at any time

    Under Art. 438 and 441 of the Civil Procedure Code, the parties may appear at any time during the trial — even without having been summoned — to request that the court issue a ruling ratifying their mediation agreement. The agreement thus becomes enforceable.

  5. 05

    Reduced judicial stamp duties

    Financially, judicial stamp duties are much lower — sometimes by half — compared to those of a standard lawsuit, under Art. 11 of GEO 80/2013:

    • a) Requests asking the court to issue a ruling ratifying the parties' understanding, including one resulting from a mediation agreement: 20 lei.
    • b) If the agreement concerns the transfer of ownership or another real right over immovable property, 50% of the duty that would have been due for a reivindication action over the most valuable asset is added. For partition, 50% of the duty calculated under Art. 5 is added to the fixed fee.
