Our offices are located at Str. Lăpușneanu 14 in the centre of Iași, a short walk from Piața Unirii. The building's terracotta-cream exterior makes it immediately recognisable on the street. We are open Monday to Thursday from 09:00 to 18:00 and Friday from 09:00 to 17:00; we are closed at weekends. Telephone enquiries on +40 732 441 880 are answered directly during office hours. Written enquiries sent to [email protected] receive a substantive response within one business day. For clients travelling from outside Iași, we also offer secure video consultations using an encrypted platform of your choice.
We have designed the intake process to be straightforward, respectful of your time, and entirely without obligation.
A brief call with Edward or Miriam to understand your situation at a high level and determine whether our services are likely to be a good fit. There is no preparation required on your part; we ask broad questions and listen. If there is no fit, we will say so plainly and, where possible, suggest alternatives.
If the introductory call confirms a likely fit, we schedule two structured discovery sessions. The first covers your financial position, obligations, and objectives. The second explores your attitude to risk and any qualitative considerations — family dynamics, business interests, charitable intentions — that should shape your Capital Protection Statement.
Within three weeks of the discovery sessions, we deliver a draft Capital Protection Statement setting out our proposed strategy structure in plain language. You review it, ask questions, and request amendments before any implementation begins. Nothing is implemented until you have signed off on the final version.
“I sent an email on a Tuesday afternoon expecting an automated acknowledgement. Instead, Miriam replied personally within two hours with three thoughtful questions about my situation. That response told me more about how this firm works than any brochure could have. I signed the engagement letter six weeks later.”

All communications with Hartwell & Sinclair are covered by professional confidentiality obligations under Romanian law and, where Teodora Albu is involved in legal structuring work, by attorney-client privilege. We do not share client information with third parties except as strictly required for implementation — and then only with the client's prior written consent. Our data processing practices comply with GDPR. If you have concerns about privacy before making an initial enquiry, please review our Privacy Policy or contact us specifically on this point; we are accustomed to discussing data handling with clients for whom discretion is a primary concern.
