Private Client

Advising international clients on wealth structuring, succession planning, and asset protection under Italian law.

What I handle:

• Estate planning and succession strategies

• Italian trust structures (trusts italiani)

• Asset protection arrangements

• Cross-border wealth planning

• Inheritance tax optimization

• Family wealth governance

Typical clients:

International clients establishing residence in Italy, purchasing property, or structuring significant assets. Many are drawn by Italy's tax regimes for new residents, lifestyle, and succession planning advantages under Italian law.

The process:

Wealth structuring in Italy requires navigating forced heirship rules, tax treatment of cross-border assets, and coordination between different legal systems. Italian succession law differs fundamentally from common law jurisdictions in how it treats inheritance, spousal rights, and testamentary freedom.

Italian law recognizes trusts through the Hague Convention, offering planning opportunities, but implementation requires careful attention to forced heirship constraints, tax registration, and beneficial ownership reporting.

I work with clients to structure arrangements that achieve their objectives within Italian legal parameters, coordinating with tax advisors and foreign counsel where multiple jurisdictions are involved.
