Dentons bolsters EU Competition and Antitrust practice with Partner Livia Zamfiropol

Bucharest-Global law firm Dentons has recruited partner Livia Zamfiropol to lead its Competition and Antitrust practice and Life Sciences sector group in Bucharest.

Over the last two decades, Livia Zamfiropol has built a strong reputation as one of Romania's leading competition and antitrust lawyers, earning high rankings from major international legal directories such as Chambers & Partners and The Legal 500. She advises and represents local and multinational companies in complex antitrust investigations, including matters involving alleged abuse of dominance and anti-competitive agreements before the Romanian Competition Council.

She also assists clients with merger control clearances, foreign direct investment screening and the regulatory aspects of strategic investments and transactions in Romania, including State aid. In addition, she coordinates competition compliance programs and provides strategic advice in litigation proceedings challenging decisions issued by the Romanian Competition Council.
She has deep experience advising clients in the life sciences sector on competition law as well as Romanian pharmaceutical law.

Agnieszka Stefanowicz-Barańska, Co-Head of Dentons' Europe Competition and Antitrust practice commented, "Livia's appointment adds further depth to our European Competition and Antitrust platform and enhances our ability to support clients on complex cross-border matters. Her track record in merger control, antitrust investigations and regulatory matters will be a valuable asset in an enforcement environment that is becoming increasingly sophisticated across Europe."

Perry V. Zizzi, Romania Managing Partner, comments: "We are very pleased to welcome Livia to our Bucharest team. She is a highly respected practitioner known for her unparalleled expertise in high-profile competition and antitrust matters, including competition-related litigation. Her appointment greatly strengthens our local capabilities, as competition law advice is critical to our market-leading M&A, Real Estate and Energy practices."

Livia Zamfiropol commented on her appointment, "I look forward to the opportunities ahead in working with my new colleagues to further develop Dentons' Competition and Antitrust practice in Bucharest and across Europe."
