Pairing
Henley & Partners
Fragomen LLP
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.
Henley & Partners
The world's largest investment-migration firm, operating from thirty-five offices globally. Italian citizenship by descent is one part of a broader portfolio that includes investment-based residency and citizenship programmes. Suited to applicants whose Italian descent claim sits alongside cross-border tax, residency, or wealth-planning considerations.
Thirty-five-plus offices globally, with in-house legal teams across multiple jurisdictions.
Full advisory portfolio including investment-based residency and citizenship programmes — useful when descent recognition is part of a wider relocation or wealth-planning picture.
London office plus international presence.
Brand recognition that carries weight with banks, government agencies, and professional intermediaries.
Both practices serve the same end — Italian citizenship recognition for applicants in the UK. Henley & Partners works from Other; Fragomen LLP from United Kingdom. Both take broadly the same approach to engagement, framed as case-led. SRA regulation falls on one side only; the procedural assumptions that follow — professional indemnity, formal complaints process — sit with that side.

The world's largest immigration law firm. The London office sits at 95 Gresham Street, SRA-regulated, with the institutional infrastructure of a global practice built around corporate immigration.

SRA-regulated, with mandatory professional indemnity insurance and a formal complaints pathway.
Operating from a Companies House LLP since 2006, with nearly two decades of continuous UK trading.
Physical London office at 95 Gresham Street, with in-person meeting capability.
