MOST REQUESTED SERVICES
Constitution and management of companies
Our Firm supports foreign clients in setting up and managing companies, and their branches, under Italian jurisdiction.
The most common kind of business form used by our foreign clients is the SRL (limited liability company), which can be also set up as one-man company.

Constitution of companies
When setting up the company, we provide the following services:
  • preliminary analysis of the client's project;
  • analysis of the legal, tax and administrative matters;
  • execution of initial practices at the Revenue Agency;
  • execution of initial practices with the Business Register;
  • technical support to the notary (always needed in Italy) who prepares the memorandum of association and the articles of association;
  • preparation of the company books;
  • activation of electronic invoicing (obligatory in Italy starting from 2019);
  • customer support for the capital contributions from the shareholders and for relations with banks;
  • search for offices, warehouses and industrial buildings;
  • execution of any other administrative task requested by the Client.
Management of the company
After the establishment, our Firm provides the management services needed to the company.
In particular it fulfills all the following obligations:
  • to keep the accounts;
  • preparation of tax returns;
  • preparation of the annual financial statements.
Accounting management can be customized according to the Client needs.
We may provide additional services such as, for example, support to parent company’s auditors or assistance with periodic reports.
Assets and businesses valuations
Our Firm carries out analysis and evaluations of investments in assets and businesses, which not simply concern patents, trademarks, concessions, licenses, technical know -how, intellectual capital, brands and similar assets, but businesses and company participations as well.
This specific activity is quite relevant inside the Italian legal system, since capital contributions in companies might appear in a money-form or in a in-kind-form. In the latter case, the in-kind contribution value must be fixed according to a special procedure, set out in the Civil Code, which is reserved to professionals- who need to swear before the Court of Law- qualified as legal auditors, to draw up an estimate-document.
The Firm, in the person of Dott. Francesco De Stefano, has the necessary qualification to support its Customers to fulfill this particular activity.
Tax consulting and tax litigation
The general tax consultancy includes ordinary activities related to “Income statements”(IRES or IRPEF), “VAT statements”, “Regional taxation on productive activities”(IRAP), etc.
We can draw up professional opinions to give assistance on the occasion of extraordinary operations (e.g. M&A), focusing on fiscal procedures and tax impact. 
Our fiscal assistance concerns the whole relationship between our Customers and Taxation Authorities. 
In case of tax litigations, we are allowed to defend our Customers, before the Revenue Tribunal, both in judgement of first instance and on appeal.
Accounting advice for businesses
Our Firm provides accurate accounting management services for individuals and companies of any size and wherever located. In any case, the execution of the service involves the Customer in a constant exchange of information, even with remote IT solutions. Books and accounting records are updated promptly, in full compliance with tax and civil regulations. At the Customer's request, it is possible to proceed at any time with the verification of the accounting situations, the preparation of interim financial statements, budget extensions, business plans, and other statistical processing. 
The Client can rely on the Firm staff in the same way he would rely on his own team.
Accounting audit
We offer the service of accounting audit both for internal needs or for activities to carry out with associated companies or third businesses. 
Dott. Francesco De Stefano is qualified as legal auditor and is registered in the Legal Auditor Register at the Ministry of Economy and Finance.







Expert opinions in legal proceedings
Sometimes, in case of civil disputes, Clients must be supported, not only by their lawyers, but also by experts and assessors, who give their professional opinions about technical matters, which will be expounded before the judges.
We provide our Clients with analysis and evaluations of particular assets, tangibles or intangibles, and about any contractual relationship, drawing up, as qualified experts, reports and professional opinions concerning:
  • shares of participation in companies;
  • business assessments; 
  • financial relationships with banks; 
  • partitions of inheritance among heirs;
  • fair execution of contractual obligations;
  • etc.
During the proceeding we intervene to testify before the judges and to explain the reasons of our Client.
