Celestina has successfully represented clients in a wide range of complex disputes, particularly in the areas of administrative and tax litigation, the return of the ownership rights of certain buildings unjustly seized by the government during the communist era, land law, cases concerning building consolidation projects managed by A.M.C.C.R.S., applications to the ECHR, as well as in numerous disputes involving public procurement, urban planning law, labor law, medical malpractice, and commercial arbitration.
