Our primary areas of expertise cover the full spectrum of the public private relations. Consequently we have par procurement that means contracts for supply works and services and public and private partnership.

We have infrastructure and real estate that including building and planning. Then regulated markets such for example energy, public services, environment, some special sector because we also deal with specialized field like space law or and heritage that is very important for for Italy.

another area is the accounting responsibility for public officers and last but not least litigation in all those matters. And basically we advise private companies if the matter involves a public entity and we also provide legal services to public administration or public entities.

We provide concrete useful solution tailored to this client strategic goals. Our value is built on three pillars. We can say the first is that clarity and transparency. We bring out personal values into work. That mean absolute transparency in communication, simplicity in professional relationship and total clarity regarding economic condition. The second pillar is pro that we go beyond the typical bill of hour.

And the third pillar is the passion. We are really interested in our work and really committed to support and help our clients in a partnership perspective to solve the problem that our clients has.

We represent a balanced portfolio of both public authorities and private companies. so for public clients we assist for example contracting authorities throughout the entire life cycle of a public tender.

issues related to the performance of the contract. Typical sector of engagement for our law firm are public works and infrastructure, project financing and public and private partnership, healthc care, public procurement for medical devices and supplies, service standards from large scale industrial cleaning services to specialized public utilities.

So a very important achievement for our firm is our recent involvement in one of the most iconic infrastructure project in Italy, the street of Msina Bridge which provide a permanent link between Sicily and Colombia.

We had the privilege of assisting a temporary association of companies led by Edison Energy. one of the most important world players in the energy sector.

So being at the heart of such a historic project underscore our firm’s ability to handle the most complex and high stakes administrative mandates in the country. We are very proud for this. Joining the global law exports platform was a strategic decision driven by our vision for the future of our administrative law.

It allows us to compare interpretation solutions worldwide making our approach more open and more sophisticated. The second is a global position that means to enter a broader conversation and the third is the strategic connectivity connectivity.
