Pairing
Pini Franco LLP
Corviado
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.
Pini Franco LLP
A multidisciplinary London law firm where the partners hold dual qualification as Italian avvocati and English solicitors. Italian-British work sits at the centre of the practice, including international successions, corporate immigration, and EU citizen rights — all of which adjoin the Italian-citizenship recognition route. Companies House registered as an LLP since 2009 from offices in the City at Ely Place.
Partners are dual-qualified — both Italian avvocati and English solicitors.
International successions and corporate immigration practice sits inside the same firm — adjacent to Italian-citizenship recognition work.
Companies House LLP since 2009 with continuous trading from Ely Place in the City of London.
Founding partners Rocco Franco and Domenic Pini are listed on the Italian Consulate London's referral register.
Bilingual Italian and English correspondence.
Both practices serve the same end — Italian citizenship recognition for applicants in the UK. Both operate from United Kingdom. The engagement model differs — case-led on one side, tiered on the other. The choice tends to come down to how the work is best framed for the specific case.
Corviado
A UK-registered firm built around the operational reality of recognising Italian citizenship from outside Italy. The service runs end-to-end — comune document retrieval, certified translation, FCDO apostille, consular submission — with a tiered structure that lets solo applicants and multi-generation family cases each engage at the right scale. Incorporated in 2026 at Companies House under London chambers.
Tiered service structure designed to fit the case rather than impose one shape on every applicant.
End-to-end operational coverage — Italian document retrieval, certified translation, apostille, consular submission — without coordinating across separate vendors.
Companies House registered (17098795) at a verifiable London address.
Bilingual Italian and English correspondence with Italian municipal offices.
Structured as a parent entity (Corviado Ltd) rather than a sole-trader operation, which carries through into engagement letters and accountability.
