The first half of 2011 saw a rise in earnings for the Danila, Petre&Asociatii (DPA) law firm, due to the recovery of the consultancy department, backed by increased demand, in the context of modifications brought to the new Tax Code and the labour laws, a press release informs. “In the context of the economic crisis, the consultancy activity suffered a steep reduction. Since the beginning of the year, there have been signs of a recovery in this segment and, by the end of next year, we hope the market will revert to 2008 levels,” Nicoleta Grama, DPA partner, stated.
