International Vocation

The process of globalisation brings to every professional’s attention new issues and unavoidable needs, which must be addressed promptly through an ever up-to-date knowledge of the applicable legal instruments, both at national and international level.

The Firm is able to guarantee its clients an integrated legal service internationally as well, thanks to an extensive and well-established network of collaborations that includes the most prestigious international law firms.

The Firm is also able both to assist foreign clients carrying out their professional or business activity in Italy, and to provide its services to Italian clients with economic interests abroad.

The Firm is a partner of numerous associations that foster exchange and dialogue in international contexts (such as the British Chamber of Commerce in Italy and the American Chamber of Commerce in Italy) and takes part in initiatives aimed at strengthening foreign relations and promoting dialogue with institutions and leading decision-makers.

The international dimension today runs through all of the Firm’s practice areas: from cross-border internal investigations, conducted in coordination with law firms and consultants from other jurisdictions, to the handling of extradition and European Arrest Warrant proceedings, through to assisting multinational groups in building compliance systems consistent with the anti-corruption and anti-money laundering rules of different legal systems (including the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the UK Bribery Act and the French Loi Sapin II).

The Firm’s professionals provide ongoing assistance to managers and high-net-worth individuals in matters of judicial cooperation — in particular in relation to sensitive extradition proceedings to and from countries both within and outside Europe — obtaining decisions that constitute a benchmark in the field, and have acted as expert witnesses on Italian law before foreign courts.

In parallel, the Firm’s professionals make available their high level of expertise in the field of human rights protection, also offering support — directly and, where appropriate, through the involvement of highly specialised figures — in matters of international protection.

The Firm also contributes to the leading international guides in the sector — including the Practitioner’s Guide to Global Investigations, published by Global Investigations Review, and the Chambers and Partners guides — and its professionals are active members of the most authoritative international associations, such as the International Bar Association, the European Criminal Bar Association and the Extradition Lawyers’ Association.
