Sort of an introduction

The short story is that working with a lawyer means exercising the right to legal assistance and representation in court, but also taking steps to minimize legal risks.

Going into specifics, for people who want to start or grow a business, legal support can be the missing element that provides not only the know-how but also the confidence to take the business to the next level.

The process of working with a lawyer needs to be transparent, which is why it’s important to me to take the time to research, analyze to ensure the accuracy of the information and solutions I provide, and time to explain and implement the recommendations and risks associated with each proposal.

This ensures a strong, permanent and close collaboration with my clients.

My experience has shown me that any situation must be approached by considering several aspects – the nature of the problem, the client’s needs and interests, the legal provisions, the client’s short, medium or long term plans etc. – and from several angles – commercial law, tax law, labor relations, etc. Therefore, the legal solutions is propsed by taking into account all these aspects.

I invite you to check out Areas of expertise and services, the Legal Blog and email me at contact@lawyerup.ro. Briefly outline your needs and let’s start a constructive dialog.

Thank you for your attention and your time,

Attorney Cristina Filimon

Areas of expertise and services

I provide representation before the courts in commercial, labor and administrative disputes, as well as legal consultancy services.

Legal consultancy is mainly aimed at preventing legal non-conformities, litigation and ending tense situations before they materialize into a dispute in court. The advice can be provided in several forms – business scanning and legal advice/opinions, obtaining authorizations, complying with the requirements of special legislation (such as labour law, personal data protection/GDPR, consumer protection), but also services for securing certain rights – claims, intellectual property rights (trademarks, designs, models), guarantees, etc.

The existence or planning of a dispute means defense and support of the client’s rights in court. In this respect, I offer assistance and representation of clients before courts of all levels of jurisdiction, in labour, commercial or administrative litigation cases, as well as drafting defenses (whether in the form of a statement of claim, statement of defense, requests for main or accessory interventions etc.), proposing evidence and any other steps necessary for the proper handling of the case.

Who am I and what do I offer?

My name is Cristina Filimon, I'm an attorney, member of the Bucharest Bar Association, and I can assist you in finding an optimal solution to your legal problem. My role is to listen, to understand my clients' challenges and to provide them with the necessary assistance and guidance to materialize their ideas.

The commitment I made when I entered the legal profession was to provide quality legal services and to approach cases with an inquisitive mind and, as much as possible, thinking outside the box, while maintaining objectivity and contact with legal reality.

Any challenge is multi-faceted, the consequences are multi-layered and often time-sensitive, facts which I fully understand. I respond promptly, on point and make sure that I approach a legal situation strategically and that the solution offered is a useful and practical one. That's why I work closely with and draw on the expertise of fellow lawyers specializing in different areas, when necessary, as well as intellectual property advisors, insolvency practitioners and certified auditors.

Growing a business means passion, time, money, but also reliable people you can rely on, and I can be one of them. Email me at contact@lawyerup.ro to schedule a meeting to discuss strategies and options.

Others about me

Aurora Chițu, Civil servant, Head architect of a municipality

Cristina managed to change my whole destiny through her work. It took soul, knowledge and dedication to obtain a favourable court ruling for my reinstatement into the position from which I was abusively dismissed. Under the pressure of time, of the stakes involved and the complexity of the case, she intervened decisively in winning my case. Other cases followed. She always responds promptly, respects short deadlines and manages to work well under pressure. Even if the deadline was very short, she had the ability to analyse in depth and highlight the important and useful details to a case. She had the courage to deal with special areas - public administration, litigation with civil servants, administrative litigation - and managed to master the diversity of topics and specific legislation. I found in her the moral support I needed, candour and love for truth and justice. I also appreciated the humour and the warmth with which she knows how to approach the most difficult moments.

Georgiana Mitroiu, HR & Head of finance at www.vexio.ro

Our collaboration with Cristina started in 2018 for the implementation of the new norms regarding the protection of personal data (GDPR). Her way of working is professional and customer-oriented. Not everyone understands technical language, and for me it is very important to know exactly how to approach a situation or a legal issue. Cristina has the necessary capacity and patience for this. She is the type to explain to you every step, what are the options and help choose the best one for you. Every business needs legal advice and we recommend Cristina to all those who want a person they can rely on and who always completes any project handed to her, regardless of whether it is assistance for drafting commercial contracts, labour law or other civil matters. We have recommended her to many collaborators and I still recommend her because she is as how we believe that any lawyer should be: professional, honest, client-oriented and with a lot of patience!

Emilia Zamfir, Civil servant at a central public authority

Cristina Filimon is the person to whom you can entrust your case without fear, no matter how complicated it may be. And that's because she is highly educated, experienced and extremely serious. And, above all, she is a warm person, who inspires confidence from the first contact. She manages, in communication, to be very firm but, at the same time, elegant. I am glad that I had the opportunity to meet her, and I can only send her sincere congratulations for the way she approached the problems and wish her as many cases as possible. And all won.
