Our approach

MOCANU LEGAL provides legal support for IT projects, digital businesses, commercial transactions, investors and real estate projects.

Modern businesses do not need a lawyer only for drafting documents or representing them in disputes. They need a legal partner who can identify risks early, structure contractual relationships properly, protect digital products, support transactions and help with decisions that directly affect money, growth and business security.

The main practice areas of MOCANU LEGAL include IT projects, contract law, commercial transactions, corporate law, real estate, debt recovery, pre-litigation work and court disputes.

We quickly understand the core of each project, identify vulnerable points, offer clear solutions and build a legal strategy tailored to the business objective. Our goal is for legal support not to complicate processes, but to help the business move forward, reduce risks and protect its interests more effectively.

Where a problem can be prevented, we act early. Where a dispute has already arisen, we protect the client firmly, professionally and with strong legal arguments.

What every client gets

Конфиденциальность иконка

Confidentiality

We handle commercial information, documents, negotiations and internal business decisions with care. Everything related to the client’s business remains protected.
Оценка рисков иконка

Risk Assessment

Before taking action, the client understands the potential risks, weak points of a transaction, agreement or corporate decision — and the options to reduce them.
четкая стратегия иконка

Clear Strategy

We do not limit our work to general advice. The client receives a clear action plan: what should be done, in what order and for what purpose.
Прозрачный формат работы иконка

Transparent Working Process

From the beginning, we define the scope of work, timelines, format of legal support and working terms — with no uncertainty or vague wording.

Services for IT, Business and Investment projects

We analyze how the product works, who uses it, where liability may arise and which risks should be limited before launch or scaling.

Legal Structuring of IT Products

We prepare terms of use, internal policies, acceptance mechanisms and clear provisions on liability, service limitations and user obligations.

Terms of Use for Digital Platforms

We draft and review agreements for software development, licensing, SaaS subscriptions, digital services, technical support, maintenance and cooperation with contractors or clients.

IT and SaaS Agreements

We build clauses that protect the product, know-how, code, customer base, commercial processes and the company’s position in relations with users, partners and contractors.

Protection of IT Company Interests

We help define rules for data, confidentiality, limitation of liability, warranty exclusions and the obligations of parties involved in digital products.

Data, Confidentiality and Liability

We support projects as they grow: new features, markets, partnerships, monetization models, contractual risks and more complex commercial relationships

Legal Support for Growth and Scaling

We assist with choosing the legal form, setting up the company, structuring relations between shareholders and preparing documents needed for proper business operation.

Company Formation and Structuring

We draft, review and negotiate agreements for services, supply, sale and purchase, distribution, partnerships, investments, construction works and other commercial relations.

Commercial Contracts

We help prevent and manage conflicts between founders, shareholders, directors or investors, with a focus on control, responsibility and protection of the company’s interests.

Shareholder and Management Relations

We provide legal support for business sales, investor entry, transfers of participation interests, commercial partnerships and the legal structuring of important transactions.

Transactions and Investments

We step in during negotiations to clarify obligations, risks, deadlines, liability and exit mechanisms before the contract is signed.

Negotiations and Contractual Protection

We review contracts, corporate documents, existing obligations and legal risks before transactions, investments, financing, expansion or restructuring.

Legal Audit of the Business

We support buyers, sellers and investors in transactions involving land, commercial premises, buildings, development projects and other real estate assets.

Real Estate Transactions

We review ownership documents, property history, encumbrances, restrictions, cadastral, urban planning and contractual risks before the transaction is signed.

Legal Due Diligence of Property

We draft and negotiate lease, commercial tenancy, use, management, operation and other agreements related to the use of real estate.

Lease and Use of Property

We provide legal support for construction projects and relations with contractors, clients, designers, suppliers and public authorities.

Construction and Project Development

We assist with permits, certificates, approvals, urban planning status, administrative limitations and legal communication with public authorities.

Permits, Urban Planning and Authorities

We represent clients in disputes related to ownership, possession, real estate contracts, construction, neighboring rights, performance of obligations and recovery of damages.

Real Estate Disputes

We analyze the situation, documents and positions of the parties before the conflict develops, in order to choose the most effective path: negotiation, formal claim or court action.

Pre-Dispute Strategy

We prepare notices, pre-litigation claims, responses and clear legal positions designed to protect the client’s interests and create a strong basis for the next steps.

Claims and Negotiations

We assist companies in recovering commercial debts, penalties, damages and other amounts due under contracts or business relationships.

Debt Recovery

We represent clients in commercial, corporate, contractual and real estate disputes, focusing on strategy, evidence, legal arguments and procedural protection.

Court Representation

We request protective measures, preservation of assets, protection of claims and support the client during enforcement of judgments or settlement agreements.

Protective Measures and Enforcement

We step in when conflicts arise between partners, shareholders, debtors, suppliers or clients and the situation requires a fast response, a clear strategy and a firm legal position.

Management of Complex Conflicts

We solve contractual risks, not just review documents

  • No effective safeguards for the performance of obligations existed
  • The debtor relied on the absence of a signed agreement
  • Payment was deliberately delayed under formal pretexts
  • The prospects of successful judicial debt recovery were highly uncertain

  • Formal procedural irregularities were used as a tool of pressure
  • Disputed meeting minutes were relied upon to obstruct corporate governance
