Founding Partner

I graduated in law in 1992 from University of Milan (Italy). I am a member of bar of Turin.

I have been practicing in Turin and Milan for over twenty years as an expert lawyer in business law and international trade law. I have run an Italian company with a specific focus on export for ten years; the fruit of which helps me, as a lawyer, to work with a practical and result-oriented approach.

I am a counselor of Centro Estero per l’internazionalizzazione del Piemonte (Foreign Center of Internationalization of Piedmont) in international contracts and payments.

I am the author of many different publications in international trade law, published by Sole 24 ore. I am in charge of a column in a magazine published by Assoenologi Milano, which is mainly concentrated on international contracts in wine exporting.

I am a university lecturer and speaker in congresses and courses about international distribution, contracts, and international payments.

My field of activity mainly includes counseling and assistance in trade law, international contracts, international disputes and international arbitration for Italian and foreign companies and public entities.
