“When you don’t invest in infrastructure, you are going to pay sooner or later” Mike Parker

Bulgaria’s accession to the European Union in 2007 provided the country with access to European structural funds. As a result, numerous infrastructure projects were revived or initiated and amongst a raft of transport infrastructure projects, two have been prioritized: the Sofia Metro Extension Project and the project for construction of the national highway Trakia. Eurolex Bulgaria/AD&P is a key legal consultant on both projects.

The involvement of international financing in most infrastructure projects means a thorough understanding of FIDIC is essential. Our comprehensive understanding of FIDIC rules together with the specialist knowledge of our lawyers in this sector makes Eurolex Bulgaria/AD&P the preferred legal partner for investors in infrastructure projects. We are well placed to assist clients in:

  • the organization of and participation in tenders
  • the preparation of tender documents including full contract packages
  • participation in PPP (public-private partnership) negotiations leading to the closing of contractual and financial packages
