"This anniversary, 20 years of age, matters to us, as it reminds us of the 20 million moments of joy and professional success that we’ve built together with joint effort, sacrifice and determination; it also unavoidably reminds us of the hard times we have faced. This anniversary matters as it reminds us of Andreea Ionescu, one of our ten original founders, and whom so tragically we have lost years ago – so dedicated, so strict, so loyal and so enthusiastic and energetic as she was, she would have been so happy to be with us on a day like today. We’ve started with a team of 27, motivated to build a partnership based on friendship, openness and transparency. Here we are, 20 years later, with a law firm of 175 lawyers, employees, fiscal consultants. We have come so far mainly due to the professionalism, dedication and perseverance of each and every member of our team; thank you, each of you; we are grateful. Last but not least, a big thank you to all our clients for the trust they have placed in us. We are happy to find now many friends among our clients, some have stayed close to us for these past two decades. I am proud to have you here with us!" - Florentin Țuca, Managing Partner.
"There are times in life when you have to pause, just a bit. Take a breath. Look back and be grateful. Today is such a moment for me. When we started this firm, we had no certainties and no guarantees. We did not know exactly where we were heading. All we knew was that we wanted to do things right – with the right mind and the heart at its right place... Thank you to our clients, not only for their business, but also for their trust. Trust cannot be asked for. It cannot be bought. It is something you build. And I want them to know that we care; we care about their projects, we care about people and we care about the results. If we sometimes seem too involved it’s because we actually care. It is a privilege to be part of this team. To have clients who choose you time and again. We are not only celebrating our firm here today; we are celebrating people. Mistakes we have made and learnt from. Friendships we’ve built. The courage to go on, to stand back-to-back under attack. Today, TZA means much more than offices and big cases. It means a team, colleagues, clients, people I trust. People in whom I find inspiration. And who I salute and embrace.", Gabriel Zbârcea, Managing Partner.
Florentin Țuca added: "we want to remain flexible and offer the new generation an opportunity to become involved in the firm’s business. A most recent example is Șerban Pâslaru’s joining the equity partners’ team at the beginning of this year. We will also continue to support the business environment, we will continue to be a trustful partner and a reliable friend on the long run. We pay much attention to Romanian entrepreneurs and equally support the Romanian startup and mature businesses ecosystem in identifying and implementing legal solutions fit for their business model."
On the occasion of its 20th anniversary, the Union of Jurists of Romania (Uniunea Juriștilor din România) awarded Țuca Zbârcea & Asociații the trophy "Publius Juventius Celsus", for its remarkable performance so far and a token of respect and appreciation for a law firm known as epitome of excellence in the legal profession.
