Litigation lawyer in Romania. Opening of insolvency proceedings in Romania
The opposition against the opening of insolvency proceedings in Romania at the request of the debtor is a legal instrument through which creditors can contest the court’s decision regarding the opening of insolvency proceedings in Romania. Such a procedure can only be used if the party filing the insolvency petition in Romania is a debtor in Romania. If a creditor in Romania believes that there are certain irregularities regarding the insolvency petition in Romania or the insolvency proceedings in Romania, or that there are unjustified reasons for which a debtor in Romania is requesting insolvency proceedings, they have a legal deadline for filing in Romania provided by law 85/2014 on insolvency in Romania to submit their opposition to the court regarding the opening of insolvency proceedings in Romania. This opposition will be resolved by the syndic judge in Romania who also issued the decision to open the proceedings.
The Romanian Law Firm Pavel, Mărgărit and Associates recommends consulting an insolvency lawyer in Romania or a litigation lawyer in Romania to assist you in drafting and filing the opposition against the opening of insolvency proceedings at the request of a debtor in Romania, as well as to represent you before the syndic judge to support your arguments.
