The founding NBLO partners wanted to create a law firm whose clear primary focus was on Bulgaria but which would also operate to some extent as a dual jurisdiction legal consultancy providing both Bulgarian law and UK law advice; this was succeeded by the opening of both offices in Bulgaria and London.

Following Bulgariaโ€™s accession to the EU, the firm has gone from strength to strength, periodically expanding its staff numbers as well as diversifying its portfolio of practice areas.

NBLO is typically called upon by its clients to either be: sole advisers in transactions with a Bulgarian law basis; or the counterpart to international lawyers in transactions involving Bulgarian elements; or a part of a network of advisers in a multi-jurisdictional deal. In each of these types of work, NBLO is able to match the legal, technological, time-management, document production, commercial and communication expectations of clients and law firm partners alike.
