The Firm

Since 1986 we are specialized in International Law and Commercial Law

de Capoa Law Firm was founded in the year 1986 by Lawyer Antonio de Capoa and, since its establishment, has dealt mainly with Community Law and Commercial Law, both national and international, in all its many expressions.

Over the years, anticipating the times and trends, the Firm has forged strategic alliances with highly qualified professionals (often selected from the academic world), residing in Geographical Areas that have since turned out to be strategic and crucial for the world economy, such as South America, Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans and the Caucasus, the Mediterranean basin and Central Africa, and the Middle and Far East. Significant, in this sense, are the first professional experiences with the People's Republic of China and Russia, which date back to the mid’80s, and with the “Islamic World”, which began in the second half of the ’90s. Relations with the institutions of the ’European Union originate even further back in time.

A clear and successful strategic vision of positions, always projected into the future and accompanied by significant pragmatism, has meant that the firm has been among the first law firms in the world to create stable joint venture relationships with other law firms in some of the countries now unanimously considered most interesting and rich in prospects. This has been possible also and above all thanks to the deep knowledge of the culture and customs of the countries with which the relationships are maintained, and the consequent type of approach in the relationships, always marked by the utmost respect and loyalty.

Moral integrity, a great sense of ethics, respect for fundamental values, competence, personal qualification and training, constant updating, attention to customers and their needs, the ability to work as a team, fairness and transparency (both in internal and external relations), great flexibility and timeliness in offering answers, reliability and discretion are the guiding values of Studio de Capoa and the firms with which it is linked by joint venture relationships, which characterize its professionalism.

Both the central structure, based in the city of Bologna, and the Allied Studios are nimble structures that, being able to rely on highly qualified professionals and a dense network of external collaborators, are able to deal with very challenging and internationally important orders and assignments.

The circuit of alliances that pivots on Studio de Capoa, and which è centered on the rules of “Best friends” and on “Exclusive alliances”, offers the possibilityà to create international working groups, able to offer the client a truly complete service. The advantages arising from this network of relationships are considerable, including being able to present national and international clients with a service that is absolutely homogeneous and meets the strictest international standards.

The Firm is also characterized by a constant and growing relationship with Universities and Research Institutes from all over the World and, to date, it has hosted and welcomed for internships and traineeships, more than 600 recent graduates, postgraduates and post-graduates, from all over the World.

A great attention to the world of “ethical business”, to scientific research and to the promotion of cultural exchanges è has likewise been paid by the Firm, and these efforts have been crowned by the realization and launching of several university master's degrees, conceived and promoted by the Firm and its consultants, by important Universities, as well as by the stipulation of collaboration agreements between European and non-European Universities, also promoted by the Firm.

In this intense activity, the Firm has benefited from the commitment and collaboration of FAREST, a consulting company owned by SIMEST, which in turn is controlled by the Ministry of Economic Development, and designated by the Italian government to support Italian investments abroad under the technical and financial profile. It also collaborates with PROMEUROPA, a transnational cultural association whose purpose is to promote and disseminate knowledge of the European Union.
