Practice Areas

The Firm provides advice and assistance, both out-of-court and in court, up to the enforcement stage, on debt collection matters on behalf of companies and private individuals, both nationally and internationally, both within and outside the European Union. Thanks to a well-established network of professionals throughout Italy and internationally, Studio Legale Rustichelli pursues the interests of businesses, in order to achieve the best possible outcome for the client. We always try to favour out-of-court solutions as much as possible, i.e. settlement agreements with debtors, to enable quick recovery of the debt, analysing in advance – that is, before initiating legal recovery proceedings – the debtor's actual financial situation, in order to identify assets that can be pursued during enforcement and to avoid the creditor incurring further unnecessary costs.

The Firm advises companies and individuals on banking contracts and credit transactions, both out-of-court and in court. In the out-of-court phase, the Firm's first objective is to provide a correct analysis of the client's position, in order to allow a fair assessment of the possible actions to be taken to protect their interests. Specifically, thanks to the consultancy firms with which we actively collaborate, we are able to provide expert opinions and analyses on any banking contract to highlight any irregularities in the relationship, with particular reference to issues of usury and compound interest on current accounts. In the litigation phase, the Firm acts with extreme speed in order to best protect the client, whether a company or a private individual, managing disputes with the credit institution in such a way as to block any enforcement action and allow the continuation of business activity.

The Firm has many years of experience in this field of law.

It advises companies on employment, quasi-subordinate and self-employment contracts and on the laws and collective agreements governing them, and advises workers, paying particular attention to the establishment or termination of the employment relationship. The Firm regularly handles disputes relating to subordinate and quasi-subordinate employment.
