Position

I am a partner in our Corporate Group in Milan where I assist our local and international clients, from manufacturing to trading and services, in corporate and commercial matters. I also provide advice on litigation and antibribery compliance.

My corporate experience includes advising on a range of matters, from M&A and start-ups, to stock purchase agreements, asset sales, deeds, dismissals, transfers of undertakings, and pre and post-closing activities. I am also involved in drafting joint venture agreements for merger and spin-off transactions. In commercial matters, I advise our clients on contractual and dispute resolution issues across a broad range of sectors.
Currently, I coordinate the work of a team which deals with compliance activity related to antibribery law and the criminal liability of companies.

I have taught law and economics, and comparative law at several universities (including the L. Bocconi University of Milan and the State University of Milan). I’m also the author of several publications on corporate and comparative law. Before joining Bird & Bird in 2007, I was a partner at a multinational law firm and also worked at an Italian tax and law firm in Milan.
