It was a pleasure to work with Marco Chirivi I and his team. It was so easy, and received my Codice Fiscale sooner than expected. Use Studio Leale Metta instead of the Italian Consolate in Philadelphia. (What a nightmare). Will definitely recommend to my friends.

Thank you so much Marc!!
I met with Antonio Cammarano from Studio Legale Metta via Zoom regarding Italian Citizenship by descent. Antonio is extremely knowledgable and well-versed in immigration law. He took the time to analyze all the possibilities available to me and my family. His explanations were thorough and promptly responded to my concerns. He is a both charismatic and compassionate. Look no further!! I would definitely recommend to anyone seeking to regain or acquire Italian citizenship or residency.

Thanks Mike for the very kind words and details about your consultation with Antonio...we'll make sure he sees your feedback!
We requested assistance for the issuance of a corrected code fiscale. The service was fast and efficient and we received our documents in a very timely manner. Excellent service

Thank you Marcos, we're glad we could help you with your Codice Fiscale!!
I was pleasantly surprised with the professionalism and speed in which I was able to get my codice fiscale for Italy. This was necessary because I'm there and time was important. It took just as long as the service said it would: 7-9 days. I'm satisfied with the results. Marco Chirivi did an excellent job.

Thank you so much for your kind review!!
We decided to contact this firm based on the reviews!. So far the experience is less than satisfactory. I called yesterday, if you select English it asked you to leave a message. I called back and reached a person. I called from Milan expecting to reach someone in Milan ( or at least Italy) the person that answered the phone had a strong American accent and could have been based in the US. I explained that I wanted to speak to someone in Milan, there was noone avaialble - no secretary ?! Nooone. It was 14.30.. approx. I asked for a call back as soon as possible. After two days no call back... wow!!!!
Update 28.5.28 - after reading the reply below from your company - still noone has called back after 1 week. Clearly your system is not so efficient. The number was given and read back to us to confirm. Noone has contacted us!

We’re sorry to hear that you were frustrated with the options to handle your call. Let me explain a bit about how we work to better set expectations around what will happen when you call our offices.
Since we work with clients throughout the world who are based in different time zones, we have a centralized trained reception team that answers the phone 24/7. All calls are handled there. For most calls, the reception team is trained to provide the needed information right then and there. When callers ask to speak with a lawyer or staff member, the messages are emailed to the appropriate lawyer or staff member. Our reception team members are not located in the same space where our teams work and they have no option to ‘transfer’ calls to staff. We use this setup deliberately as it is more efficient to connect callers from many different time zones to our law firm with offices in multiple locations. We also ask our reception team to collect your email address so that our team will be able to respond as quickly as possible.
We have seen that, among all the systems that we tried, the current one has been providing the best experience to people calling and working with our law firm.
We understand in this specific instance you were frustrated, and while we were sorry to hear that, we welcome your feedback as it gives us the opportunity to share with you more about how we work.
Update June 12, 2026 - As your name is not public in your Google profile, we cannot track your call to undertand if there was a problem or not. Feel free to use our website contact form if you'd like further follow-up.

I did a lot of research before consulting this practice and they far exceeded my expectations - a really amazing group of lawyers. Nick was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and generous with his time. I would recommend them without reservation and am thankful for all their help!

We appreciate the nice review about Nick, thank you so much!!
I had an excellent experience working with Marco and his team in obtaining my official Codice Fiscale in Italy. From start to finish, the process was handled professionally, efficiently, and with great communication throughout.
As someone navigating the Italian administrative system from abroad, it was incredibly valuable to have a knowledgeable and responsive team guiding the process and ensuring everything was completed correctly. Marco was always available to answer questions and made what could have been a complicated process feel straightforward and stress-free.
I would highly recommend Marco and his team to anyone needing assistance with Italian documentation, residency preparation, or related services. First-class service all around.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Marco!!
Wow!! I applied for my codice fiscale through Studio Legale and within 72 hours, I recieved my codice, this process could not have been any easier. I will DEFINITELY use Studio Legale for any immigration/real estate needs as I am looking to purchase a retirement home in Italy soon. Thank you Marco who handled my codice inquiry, you kept me in the loop the entire way, I look forward to working with you again in the future!!

Thank you for your kind review David, we appreciate it!!
My wife and I recently had an initial consultation with Nick Metta, and we were extremely impressed. I did extensive research before choosing this legal office, and I’m very glad I did.
If you’re considering relocating to Italy or need guidance with property purchases, inheritance matters, or immigration status, Nick Metta and his team offer exactly the level of expertise you’re looking for. He is highly knowledgeable across all of these areas and was incredibly generous with his time, spending far longer than expected during our initial consultation to thoroughly address our questions. I can’t recommend this office highly enough!

My father and I were fortunate to work with Studio Legale Metta on solving a complex real estate matter. They possess an impressive understanding of the Italian legal landscape and have a knack for simplifying complicated concepts. Nick Metta is proactive, highly organized, and always stays one step ahead. Their counsel provided me with the clarity and confidence I needed to move forward. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking top-tier legal representation in Italy.
