Mihnea Jida

Since 2012, Mihnea has been practicing law as a member of the Bucharest Bar Association and has been part of top litigation teams such as those of Răzvan Dincă & Asociații (2012-2014) and Popovici Niţu Stoica & Asociații (2015-2016). The experience gained by dealing with important projects in these valuable collectives enabled him to start his own practice in 2016, which eventually merged with Cristian’s in 2017.
Mihnea’s international experience also comprises the participation in 2015 at the International Internship organised by the Paris Bar Association, as a result of a scholarship jointly granted by this association and the French Embassy in Bucharest, in cooperation with the Romanian Bar Association. For a period of two months, Mihnea attended the classes of EFB (L’Ecole de Formation du Barreau de Paris) and worked as an intern for Three Crowns LLP at its offices in Paris, becoming familiar with investment arbitration and international commercial arbitration at their highest level. In the same context, Mihnea participated in the Mario Stasi international pleading contest and qualified for its final, where he was honoured to receive the jury’s special price.
