Pairing

Aprigliano International Law Firm

alongside

Resinaro

Two practices in the UK Italian-citizenship field, read alongside one another. Both profiles use the same public-record sources, held to a single editorial standard.

The pairings on this site are not rankings. They are two practices read together, sourced from the same public record, written in the same register.

01

Aprigliano International Law Firm

A Milan-based law firm with over two decades in practice. The work spans consular descent applications and the more demanding 1948 judicial route, both conducted from a city with direct access to Italy's higher courts. A Trustpilot history consistent in tone has accumulated alongside industry recognition over the years of trading.

Operating from Milan since 2002, with over twenty years of continuous practice across several Italian legal regimes.

Handles consular descent and the 1948 judicial route under one practice. The latter requires direct access to Italian courts, which Milan provides.

States a Best Firm 2024 award. The awarding body is not named on the site.

A Trustpilot record built up across years of trading.

Bilingual Italian and English correspondence with Italian municipal offices and courts.

Where they differ

7 dimensions separate them on the public record. Everything else this directory tracks reads the same for both.

Registration

Aprigliano International Law Firm

Based outside the UK, so there is no Companies House record to check. We have not searched the equivalent register in their own country.

Resinaro

No Companies House registration found. That is consistent with a sole trader or a partnership, neither of which files there, so it is a gap in the record rather than a finding against them.

Information rights

Aprigliano International Law Firm

We have not searched the ICO register for this provider, so we hold nothing either way. That is a gap in our research and not an observation about them.

Resinaro

Registered with the Information Commissioner's Office, number ZC110333. Anyone handling your birth certificate and passport is processing personal data, and the register is where that is declared.

How to reach them

Aprigliano International Law Firm

Publishes email and phone and a contact form as ways to reach them. Published on their own site, so it is checkable and it is what they hold themselves to.

Resinaro

Contact is by email only, stated hours Wednesday to Friday, 1pm to 4pm, a stated reply time of about 48 working hours. Published on their own site, so it is checkable and it is what they hold themselves to.

Pricing

Aprigliano International Law Firm

No pricing found on their site. Not unusual in this market, and not a criticism, but it does mean the cost is unknown until you ask.

Resinaro

Published on their own site, £17 to £800.

Independent reviews

Aprigliano International Law Firm

4.6 out of 5 on Trustpilot from 19 reviews. A sample that small moves several points on a handful of reviews, so read the reviews rather than the number.

Resinaro

We hold no rating for them, and no record of when anyone last looked, so read this as a gap in our data rather than a finding about theirs.

Scope

Aprigliano International Law Firm

3 of the services this directory tracks. Narrow enough to be a specialism, not wide enough to cover a whole case end to end.

Resinaro

4 of the services this directory tracks, which covers a case end to end.

Where they are

Aprigliano International Law Firm

Based in Italy. Closer to the comuni and the courts, further from you, and an hour ahead. Whether that helps depends on where the work in your case actually sits.

Resinaro

Not applicable

02

Resinaro

A UK sole trader working the consular side of Italian bureaucracy rather than the legal side: certified translations, Prenot@Mi passport appointments, AIRE registration, consular birth registration, and document preparation for recognition by descent. Prices are published per service rather than quoted, which is unusual in this field and lets an applicant cost a case before making contact. Operated by Giuseppe Giona, who states plainly on the site that this is not a law firm and has no connection to any consulate.

Publishes a price for each service rather than quoting per case, so a case can be costed before any contact is made.

Certified translations carry a verification code on the document, which is checkable by whoever receives it.

Covers the consular steps that sit either side of recognition: AIRE, birth registration, passport appointment.

States its own limits on the site, including that it is not a law firm and not connected to any consulate.
