Romania offers attractive opportunities for investment, acquisition, and business partnerships ranging from joint ventures and licensing agreements to distributorships and franchises.  There are few activities more important in Romania than conducting thorough due diligence on potential investments or business partners.

CS Romania advises American firms to engage reputable legal counsel.  Legal advisers are retained for incorporation, obtaining permits, IPR registration, contract preparation, collection, and commercial disputes.  Additionally, counsel can also be an excellent resource for identifying potential problems based on their experience in the market.

It is very important for American firms to know with whom they are doing business, whether selecting a consultant or distributor or deciding to extend credit terms.  In addition to introductions to local legal counsel, CS Romania offers a service for investigating the background, financial status, and references of Romanian firms.  This service, the International Company Profile (ICP), includes findings from interviews with the target company and supplier, customer references, and a recommendation regarding the subject’s reliability as a business partner.
