Mariana Mitroi

Within the Cătălin Mihalache law office she provides legal advice and multidisciplinary support in preparing cases involving corporate law, employment relations, not-for-profit organisations, administrative compliance, European funding, environmental protection and organisational management.

A law graduate with more than 30 years of experience in communication, public relations and organisational management, she contributes to the preparation of files by reviewing the documentation, identifying legal and administrative risks and establishing the factual matters that underpin the office’s legal strategy.

Her professional experience in fields adjacent to the law allows her to analyse an organisation from a legal, administrative and operational perspective, providing support in complex cases where the legal answer depends on understanding how a company, an association, a foundation or an institution actually works.

Working with the attorney, she helps prepare the documentation needed to resolve disputes, checks the compliance of documents and internal procedures and helps identify the administrative and organisational matters relevant to each case.

Her expertise is particularly useful in cases concerning:

• corporate law and corporate governance;
• incorporation, reorganisation and amendment of companies;
• disputes concerning the functioning of company management bodies;
• establishment, organisation and operation of associations and foundations;
• employment disputes and the organisation of human resources;
• verification of internal procedures and administrative documentation;
• projects financed from European funds and compliance with the obligations assumed under the financing contracts;
• disputes concerning the performance of investment and construction projects;
• environmental compliance;
• occupational health and safety;
• preventive legal support for entrepreneurs and legal entities.

In preparing a case she reviews the articles of association, statutes, internal regulations, resolutions of management bodies, contracts and administrative documentation, looking for any non-compliance or legal risk that may affect the outcome of the dispute.

Her experience with associations and foundations allows the office to advise on the establishment, amendment and reorganisation of non-governmental organisations, the drafting of statutory documents and compliance with the applicable legal framework.

As a human resources inspector, she reviews the documents specific to employment relations, recruitment and termination procedures, internal regulations and the documentation on pay, discipline and work organisation, supporting the preparation of employment law cases.

Her qualifications as an environmental auditor and occupational health and safety inspector allow her to assess compliance with the legal obligations applicable to businesses and to identify the matters relevant to disputes concerning administrative, civil or contractual liability, accidents at work, permits and compliance with environmental and safety rules.

Her experience as a project manager, including in European funding and construction, provides a practical view of how complex projects are implemented, of the obligations assumed under financing contracts, of the relations between beneficiaries, funders and contractors, and of the legal risks created by failure to meet contractual obligations.

As a manager in the social care field, she analyses the regulatory and administrative framework applicable to social service providers, non-governmental organisations and the institutions involved in delivering social services, matters that are relevant both in litigation and in preventive advisory work.

Her background as a trainer and specialist in communication and public relations is a significant advantage in preparing legal documentation, organising information flows and institutional communication, allowing effective collaboration between the client and the office throughout the handling of each file.

Through this multidisciplinary approach she contributes to the thorough preparation of cases, to identifying legal risks before they turn into disputes, and to developing solutions suited to businesses and to non-governmental organisations.

Her collaboration with the office gives clients the benefit of an integrated analysis, in which the legal issues are supported by expertise in organisational management, administrative compliance, human resources, environmental protection, occupational health and safety and project management, helping to build sound legal strategies both in advisory work and in complex litigation.
