International capabilities

INTERNATIONAL

Ichino Brugnatelli e Associati is based in Milan, a city which has been playing the role of international hub for more than two decades now. In view of this, the firm has worked with clients spanning from foreign companies willing to extend their operations to Italy to Italian multinational companies through a variety of International Groups.

Unique lawyer-client relationship

Since Italian law system is complex and based on some specific cultural bases, global, international, or just foreign clients facing challenges in this country, from the start-up phase and day-by-day business operation to any major decision to be taken related to their business strategy, can rely on the assistance provided by Ichino Brugnatelli e Associati, whose long history is a guarantee of deep insight into Italian law and common practice, as well as sound experience of the relations with its agencies and institutions.

The firm’s globally open approach is reflected in its diverse international client base, which includes multinational companies, financial institutions, and businesses in the fashion, telecommunication, chemical, energy, and banking industries.

In recent years the team dedicated to East Asia has developed an extensive network of relationships in Italy and China, advicing Italian companies in their internationalization processes and assisting Chinese clients, including individuals, with the acquisition of assets – corporate and real estate – in Italy, as well as with the subsequent management thereof: governance, employment and distribution contracts, restructuring, residence permits for qualified workers and executives.

The firm’s lawyers speak a range of languages including English, French, Spanish, and Chinese.

International network

Contrary to many law-firms, Ichino Brugnatelli e Associati is not part of a branded international network, but it has created its own, by frequent contact with prime international colleagues and top-quality law firms, to be ready to give its clients appropriate international referrals to those advisors who are best responding to their needs from time to time.
