Client spotlight
Michael
Citizenship Client
For Michael and his family, the journey to Italian citizenship was more than a legal process – it was a deeply personal mission to honor the legacy of their ancestors.
Like many Italian descendants, Michael’s family had long dreamed of reclaiming their heritage. But as anyone pursuing Italian citizenship by descent knows, the process can be complex, especially when handled across borders and through the courts. That’s where My Lawyer in Italy stepped in.
From the very beginning, our team provided Michael’s family with:
- Clear legal analysis of their eligibility
- Full case support management from intake through court ruling
- Prompt communication at every step
- A human-centered approach that recognized the emotional weight of this journey
We’re honored to have walked this path with Michael and his loved ones – and proud that the outcome was not just a legal victory, but a multigenerational triumph.
At MLI, that’s exactly what we strive for: helping families reconnect with their roots while building a secure legacy in Italy.
Bruna C.
Probate & Property Client
A seven-year stall, resolved by the power of specialized expertise.
After seven years of little progress on their complex Italian inheritance case, Bruna C. and her family discovered a critical truth: such intricate legal matters require an experienced specialist. That’s when they came to My Lawyer in Italy (MLI).
Our dedicated team did what others couldn’t: we reopened the stalled process, cut through the complexity, and efficiently brought the case to a close. The result was a finalized inheritance and a successful property sale.
Bruna’s story is a powerful reminder that for even the most stalled cases, with the right specialized legal team, a lasting resolution is always possible.
Nancy
Property & Probate Client
Nancy D., a Los Angeles-based attorney, knew that buying property in Italy involved layers of legal, tax, and cross-border challenges. When she decided to purchase a vacation home for her family, she turned to My Lawyer in Italy.
With our team, Nancy received step-by-step guidance through the purchase process, including due diligence, contract review, and local compliance. We helped her navigate Italian bureaucracy while maintaining full transparency.
Nancy appreciated not just the legal expertise, but also our responsiveness and reasonable fees. As a fellow legal professional, she saw firsthand the care and precision behind our work.
Today, Nancy continues to rely on MLI for all her Italian legal needs.
Frank
Citizenship Client
When Frank, a practicing attorney in the United States, began his journey to obtain Italian citizenship, he knew the stakes were high – and the legal path, complex. With his deep respect for law and precision, Frank chose to work with a team that mirrored his own standards: My Lawyer in Italy.
Frank’s case wasn’t just about documents and deadlines. It was about restoring a connection to family, history, and identity. And he brought the same critical eye he applies in his own legal work.
MLI provided:
- Precise case strategy and legal filings
- Clear answers to technical questions
- Ongoing updates and accessible support
- Deep cultural understanding of Italian legal processes
- Throughout the process, Frank felt supported, respected, and heard.
We’re proud that Frank’s experience affirmed what so many clients tell us: at MLI, we combine the rigor of a legal team with the heart of a family advocate.
Al A.
Italian Citizen
For Al A., winning his Italian citizenship case meant the fulfillment of a dream. But what happened after the case closed is what truly defined his experience with My Lawyer in Italy.
Upon receiving the good news, Al shared his joy with our team. He didn’t expect a personal reply from Arturo himself, who not only congratulated him but extended a heartfelt invitation: “I am delighted to have represented you. We would be very happy to meet you and your family next time you are in Italy.”
This gesture transformed a legal victory into a deeply human moment. For Al, it was the confirmation that he was more than just a client; he was valued, supported, and welcomed into a family. At MLI, we believe legal excellence is not just about winning cases—it’s about building lasting relationships and ensuring you feel at home in Italy, even before you arrive.
Stephen
Probate Client
For Stephen D., facing a legal issue in Italy was stressful enough. What he needed was clear advice, fair pricing, and communication he could actually understand.
Stephen came to us with a long-standing issue. We provided an efficient legal strategy, kept him updated, and made the process as stress-free as possible.
At MLI, we believe every international client deserves the same respect and clarity they would expect from a lawyer back home.
