Testimonial

DICONODINOI

FRANK C., LOS ANGELES, CA
“You were very courteous and professional at every turn, following up and responding to my email. Your being in Italy is advantageous and it's nice to know that there is such a person to help Italian-Americans resolve their issues. I now have established a friendship for any future help that I will need.”
STEPHEN AND TANYA K - BEDFORDSHIRE, UK
Developer
“I would like to highly recommend Italy Legal Services and the Italian law firm they referred me to. I wish I had known about them 5 years ago when I would have welcomed so much their professionalism, spontaneous response, compassion, kindness and humility... We will never forget the kindness you have shown our family.”
ELSIE S. - PHILADELPHIA, PA
“Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into this matter. We have definitely appreciated it and will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for legal services in your jurisdiction.”
DENISE C. - HERNANDO, MASSACHUSETTS
“I have used other Italian law firms and this one was the best by far. The attorney was so knowledgeable, professional and responsive. She represented me with my grievance with a realtor and quickly resolved the issue. I will definitely use her and this firm for all the future work that I have regarding the sale of my properties. It is so nice to also work with someone that is not only knowledgeable but friendly. Thank you for all your help and support and I look forward to working with you in the future.”
PATRICK G. - CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
“I just used this firm for my father who was going through the succession process of inheriting properties from my grandfather. I found Italy Legal Services online and John coordinated with the firm who took over from there. They explained the processes to me and made me very comfortable in directing me to the USA/Italian Consulate, their recommendation plus other customer reviews like this, as well as the professionalism of both John and the attorney who helped us made me comfortable and confident this was all up and up.”
MARIA P.- LONG ISLAND, NY

I am very grateful that I met Jeannette. She is very personable, professional, and a person that I already have a good rapport with. Essential for the daunting task of dealing, for now transatlantically, with the intricacies of Italian real estate!

Jeanette, thank you so very much! You are the best barrister I've ever had in my 75 years of needing the professional services, you offer. You don't 'nickel and dime me' as so many of your professional colleagues have in my past. My husband shares my adoration of you, as well. GRAZIE MILLE!
