About this office:
The Firm, founded by Giuseppe Lombardi who leads it with the other managing partner, Ugo Molinari, has approximately sixty lawyers, of whom seven are equity partners; it maintains strong links with the academic legal community and members of the Firm serve as law professors and young scholars at Italian universities.
The Firm's lawyers have worked in a variety of practice areas, on both contentious and non contentious matters. This circumstance has significantly helped in training versatile advisors able to develop a deep and broad vision of any legal issues submitted to them.

Since its formation, the Firm has been involved in important litigation and arbitration cases in corporate, commercial and general civil law matters and the Firm has been active in advising and assisting Italian companies, financial institutions and private equity funds in non-contentious matters (mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, tender offers, and structured finance, banking and real estate).
