In the past decades, there has been a significant shift away from the traditional codified system of criminal law in Italy, with a proliferation of special laws. However, “traditional” crimes remain fundamental and are indispensable knowledge for criminal lawyers.
These crimes include medical malpractice, public corruption, property crimes, and crimes against personal liberty, such as kidnapping and sexual assault. Crimes against persons and the family are also subject to ongoing legislative changes.
Over the years, our firm has developed extensive expertise in defending clients accused of these “traditional” crimes, as well as those involving defamation and other offenses against honor.
