Romanian Lawyer specialized in Maritime law and high-level legal Advicer

Bogdan Slătineanu
Background
I am a licensed lawyer, member of the Bucharest Bar, with a consolidated professional experience in the legal field, especially in maritime law, civil and commercial law and legal consultancy for companies. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with clients in Romania and abroad, managing complex cases, which required a strategic vision, a good knowledge of international law and a deep understanding of the economic and commercial context.
I graduated the Law Faculty of the Bucharest University in 1999 and subsequently, in 2004, I graduated the Finance and Insurance Banking, and Stock Exchange Faculty of Academy of Economic Studies Bucharest.
Bogdan Slatineanu has a PhD in Law, a title given by the Romanian Academy, the highest forum of science and culture in Romania, with a project in the field of Maritime Insurance. After graduating he started my professional career in law firms focused on commercial litigation and legal consultancy, gaining experience in drafting and negotiating contracts, dispute resolution and legal risk management for companies and individuals.
Specializing in maritime law came naturally, out of a desire to delve deeper into a technical and highly complex field where few lawyers choose to really get involved. I have participated in specialized courses, represented clients before port and maritime authorities as well as before the competent courts in cases concerning maritime transport, damage, incidents at sea, insurance and carriers’ liability.
Values
In every case I take on, I prioritize professional ethics, confidentiality, accountability and result orientation. I do not treat any case superficially and I do not make promises I cannot keep. I prefer to offer a realistic and honest assessment, explain all the risks and opportunities, and build a solid strategy tailored exactly to the client’s situation.
The vision
Law as a tool for protection and development.
I strongly believe that law should not be an obstacle, but a resource for development, security and confidence – both personally and professionally. That’s why I make it my mission to provide legal services that create value, prevent risk and protect the interests of those who turn to me.
The way
I have a personalized approach for each client. I listen carefully, formulate essential questions, analyze documents and context in detail, then propose an effective and realistic legal solution. I communicate clearly and straightforwardly, avoiding ambiguous or technical language when unnecessary. I want every client to understand exactly where they stand and what their options are – because trust is built on transparency.
In my work, I emphasize:
- Clarity in communication;
- Solutions adapted to the client;
- Speed and efficiency in action;
- Permanent update with the latest legislative changes.
- Expertise in maritime law – a specialized field, with major challenges
I have a special experience in litigation and legal advice in maritime law, successfully managing cases regarding:
- maritime transport contracts;
- maritime averages;
- carrier’s liability;
- marine insurance and damage claims;
- issues related to ships, crew, or maritime accidents.
I collaborate with logistics experts, shipping companies, insurers and port authorities to provide an integrated and complete approach.
Recognition

- Collaborations with shipping companies, insurers and port operators;
