BACIU PARTNERS Secures Double Tier 1 Rankings in Legal 500 EMEA 2026
26 Martie 2026 R. T.
This recognition reinforces the firm’s core philosophy: cultivating a space where every professional can find their unique voice and contribute to the "sound of knowledge" that defines it.
BACIU PARTNERS has reconfirmed its Tier 1 status in both Intellectual Property and TMT: Gambling Law in the 2026 edition of Legal 500 EMEA.
Maintaining the highest possible ranking in these two specialized fields is a perfect reflection of the firm’s stable, organic growth and its commitment to being a leader in the Romanian regulatory-focused legal market. Independent observers note that it “stands out through its practical approach, attention to detail, and ability to turn legal complexity into clear, actionable solutions”.
Market commentators captured the core of the BACIU PARTNERS commitment: “They don't just hire lawyers; they hire people who are passionate about their work and dedicated to making a tangible difference for their clients. It's a key part of Baciu's culture.”
Consistently, BACIU PARTNERS, excellence is seen and approached as a collective journey. This year’s rankings are particularly meaningful as they highlight the individual brilliance of six of its team members, whose expertise has earned them specific accolades:
• Ana-Maria Baciu is reconfirmed as a Leading Partner in both Intellectual Property and TMT: Gambling Law—the two pillars of our firm’s go-to-market approach. Market feedback notes that “Ana-Maria Baciu is insightful, informed, efficient, and practical”, “she is always available, highly responsive, and very creative”.
• Andrei Cosma continues his steady path with a new inclusion as a Next Generation Partner in TMT: Gambling Law. Editorial notes state Andrei “is a standout professional in every sense. What truly sets Andrei apart is his profound empathy; he excels at supporting clients through difficult times with sensitivity and understanding”.
• Cosmin Todirașcu debuts in the rankings with a fantastic acknowledgement as a Leading Associate in TMT: Gambling Law.
• Ileana Nicolescu-Decsei establishes a solid foundation as a Recommended Lawyer for Intellectual Property litigation.
• Oana Ionescu-Matei joins the Recommended Lawyer group, being singled out for her Intellectual Property litigation work as well.
• Adela Nuță earns a Recommended Lawyer distinction in TMT: Gambling Law.
This recognition reinforces the firm’s core philosophy: cultivating a space where every professional can find their unique voice and contribute to the "sound of knowledge" that defines it.
The Human-Centric Advantage
The Legal 500 research consistently points to the attributes that make the team stand out: “reliability, integrity, and collaborative spirit”. Clients continue to choose BACIU PARTNERS for its “blend of technical excellence, reliability, and adaptability”.
"Tier 1 is a promise kept—to our team members, to our clients, and to the entire business community we are an active part of. It validates our belief that top-tier legal advice doesn't have to be cold or rigid; instead, it can distinguish itself by being delivered in an empathetic yet rigorous, manner, an ambitious-driven yet coherent fashion, and, above all, can be subtly aligned with our clients' business pulse—all at the same time and as one team," mentions Ana-Maria Baciu.
This double Tier 1 reconfirmation adds to a series of recent milestones for the firm, including being named CEE Intellectual Property Firm of the Year, being recognized as a Regulatory Powerhouse, and our recent elevation as the sole Band 1 firm in Chambers Europe for IP & TMT, as well as the multiple nominations for the upcoming Managing IP EMEA Awards.
