Individuals and businesses living in Romania often need legal assistance in Hungary.

Organizing legal matters for Hungarian clients in Romania
For Hungarian individuals and businesses, the necessary legal assistance in Romanian legal matters can be organized in cooperation with Romanian lawyer partners, depending on the nature of the case. This can be particularly useful in the case of purchasing real estate in Romania, founding a company in Romania, corporate law matters, concluding contracts, enforcing claims or other Romanian legal proceedings.
The assistance may include facilitating contact with the Romanian law partner, conducting a preliminary review of the case, clarifying basic documents and objectives, and supporting communication between the Hungarian client and the Romanian legal representative.
Legal assistance may be requested, for example:
- to organize legal procedures related to the purchase of real estate in Romania;
- for preparing a company formation or company modification in Romania;
- for consultation related to contractual matters in Romania;
- to engage a suitable legal partner for Romanian legal proceedings;
- to coordinate communication in Hungarian and Romanian;
- for preliminary legal review of cross-border cases.
Contracts and business relationships
In Romanian-Hungarian business relations, it is particularly important that the parties clarify exactly which law applies, in what language the contract is drawn up, how performance is carried out, what payment terms apply, and how any disputes can be resolved.
Legal assistance may be requested, for example:
- for contracts between Romanian and Hungarian business partners;
- for the preparation of bilingual or multilingual contractual documentation;
- for the opinion on a contract under Hungarian law;
- to establish terms of performance, payment and liability;
- for the prevention and out-of-court settlement of legal disputes.
Lawyer's fee
The attorney's fee is determined based on the individual circumstances of the case, the nature of the legal work, the number of documents, the complexity of the case, and any linguistic and cross-border specificities. The exact fee can be provided after prior consultation, given that depending on the nature of the case, the task is performed in cooperation with Romanian attorney colleagues, especially when handling Hungarian clients in Romania.
