Hristov & Partners has been again recognized and ranked among the leading, the best twelve, corporate and commercial law firms in Bulgaria for 2024. The independent researchers of both most prestigious international legal directories The Legal 500 and Chambers Global consistently rank our firm among the top dozen firms.
Chambers Global 2024 says:
“Hristov & Partners assists multinational clients with the structuring of Bulgarian subsidiaries. The firm also advises domestic clients on commercial contracts, including distribution agreements and shareholder agreements. The team offers experience in cross-border acquisitions and exits. ‘The lawyers get what the business needs.‘”
The Legal 500 2024 describes our firm and quality of work like this:
“Hristov & Partners is praised by its clients for its ‘international network’ and ‘proven track record’ on commercial and corporate matters. The team is regularly involved in large, cross-border M&A deals, either as lead counsel or as the Bulgarian counsel alongside international law firms, where their client roster includes international financial institutions and investment entities. Practice head Pavel Hristov advises on all manner of M&A transactions, in both a domestic and cross-border capacity, and is supported by Dragomir Stefanov and Biliana Shagova in the team.”
‘The international network of Hristov & Partners as well as the solid experience and proven track record of the company make them one of the best legal consultants anyone can turn to in this field, not only in Bulgaria.’
‘The speed of accurate feedback, proper assumptions with benefits and risks, the precise suggestions as well as the pull through activities are outstanding and above anything I have experienced in 35 years of management.’
The Legal 500 2023 in a similar way stated one year ago:
The ‘well-knit team of highly qualified lawyers’ at Hristov & Partners utilise their strong international network to work alongside large multinational firms on a range of cross-border commercial, corporate and M&A matters. The team are similarly strong on regulatory issues. Practice head and founding partner Pavel Hristov is a notable practitioner in the space who ‘stands out as very knowledgeable, experienced, and results driven’. His focus remains on domestic and cross-border mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures.
Partner Dragomir Stefanov has always been a true pleasure to work with. He is always easy to reach and offers a high level of service, is forthcoming, kind, and highly competent and knowledgeable. He manages to explain local procedures and regulations in a clear and concise manner and can adapt his communication effectively to the recipient no matter that person’s legal expertise.
We are thankful and humbled for the praise from clients and peers.
