Dear Clients and Friends,

We are very pleased to inform you that, as of January 1, 2017, Studio Legale Bernascone e Soci – Italy Legal Focus will join forces with the law firm Gitti and Partners (www.grplex.com).

Gitti and Partners brings together talented attorneys who provide excellent independent legal advice in connection with complex and sophisticated transactions, some of which made history in the Italian market. After the combination, the firm will be powered by over 50 professionals with specific expertise in the areas of M&A/PE, Real Estate, Capital Markets, Banking & Restructuring, Litigation, Regulatory, Tax, Labour and Life Sciences.

“Our clients will surely benefit from an increased spectrum of practice areas and industries’ focus, while continuing to rely on the excellence of client service that has always been a common feature of both firms”, commented Gabriele Bernascone, founding partner of Studio Legale Bernascone e Soci – Italy Legal Focus, whose roots trace back to 35 years ago and with a reputation as “an experienced and reliable firm” (The Legal 500, 2016).

As from December 30, 2016,  we will relocate to Via Dante 9, 20123 Milan, while our telephone numbers will remain unchanged. We are very excited by this new chapter of our professional lives and look forward to your continued support. We will continue to collect our reflections on law and innovation in this blog: stay tuned in 2017!

Best wishes from the blog’s contributors,

Paola Sangiovanni, Flavio Monfrini, Marco Bertucci
