Pairing
Russell-Cooke LLP
Aprigliano International Law Firm
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.

An English law firm with a dedicated Italian Law team where senior practitioners hold dual qualification, registered with the Solicitors Regulation Authority in England and Wales and the Ordine degli Avvocati in Italy at once.

Companies House registered as an LLP since 2007.

Senior team holds dual qualification, both SRA registration and Ordine degli Avvocati membership.

7 dimensions separate them on the public record. Everything else this directory tracks reads the same for both.
- Registration
Russell-Cooke LLP
Russell-Cooke LLP, company OC327450, currently active, on the register since April 2007.
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.
- Regulation
Russell-Cooke LLP
Regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, SRA number 465322.
Aprigliano International Law Firm
No UK regulator found. Assistance with Italian citizenship is not, on our reading, reserved work under UK law, so most providers in this directory are in the same position.
- Dispute resolution
Russell-Cooke LLP
Member of the Legal Ombudsman. If a complaint cannot be settled directly, there is a body to escalate to.
Aprigliano International Law Firm
Their own site names no alternative dispute resolution scheme, so if a complaint cannot be settled directly there is no ADR body named to escalate to.
- How to reach them
Russell-Cooke LLP
Publishes email and phone as ways to reach them. Published on their own site, so it is checkable and it is what they hold themselves to.

- Pricing
Russell-Cooke LLP
Quoted per case rather than published. You will not be able to compare cost against anyone else here without contacting them first.
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.
- Independent reviews
Russell-Cooke LLP
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.
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.
