Domestic and international law

The Pogliani Law Firm acts as a guide for companies and individuals seeking advice and assistance in civil and commercial law, both in domestic and international contexts. In fact, the Firm handles numerous cases which do not end their effects in the Italian legal system alone, but rather, as a result of particular situations such as the citizenship of the parties concerned, their domicile or residence, the location of the assets in question, etc., produce transnational effects, i.e. they are taken into consideration by the legal system of at least two different countries. In such cases, it is necessary to establish in advance, in accordance with the rules of private international law and procedure, which law is applicable to the case in question and, where appropriate, to which country belongs the judge or authority that would be entitled to rule on the matter.
