Inspirational Initiative
Daniele Ferretti founded his firm not only to be a legal advisor for businesses but also to help fill gaps in business structures in terms of insights, strategy, assessment, and vision, thanks to the countless solutions that knowledge of the law (international law in particular) offers.
The idea of the traditional law firm would have been too narrow for what Ferretti Firm does, as the focus of modern businesses with their advisors is shifting from ensuring compliance, preventing or resolving disputes, or drafting transactions documents to obtaining informed and sound business advice in order to increase profits and maximize results of operations. Businesses who choose Ferretti Firm choose not only a law firm but also a reliable and trustworthy advisor on efficient strategies and solutions to proficiently expand their presence abroad.
Visionary Advancements
Ferretti Firm is a fast-growing and multi-awarded law firm with outstanding expertise in corporate, finance and commercial matters, litigation and dispute resolution, insolvency and restructuring, employment, and global mobility. Its practice also focuses on intellectual property, estates and personal affairs, family business, and real estate.
The firm’s extensive experience in international and comparative law offers a distinctive approach to protecting and maximizing the value of the client’s assets throughout the preparation, development, and implementation of a project. The distinctive feature of Ferretti Firm consists in leveraging the competitive advantages of the strategies, legal instruments, and drafting techniques adopted in the US practice of law to the benefit of its clients.
As a founder, Mr. Ferretti dedicated most of his time to personally training the professional team. This required a considerable amount of time in order to let them have the same approach that he has in his day-by-day business. This is something unique because a partner or managing attorney of a law firm does not invest his/her time training on a daily basis its team; rather, he/she wants them to be already prepared and skilled when they enter into the law firm. On the contrary, Mr. Ferretti, firmly believing that details make perfections, wanted all his staff to have the same method, dedication, and philosophy he has when dealing with legal matters and clients.
A vision, a mission, along with a relentless passion and attention to detail: these four elements were sufficient for Ferretti to decide to make “all-in” and invest in the project. There is no better word to describe what Daniele Ferretti decided to do with Ferretti Firm, sharing the key values of the law firm with his team. For instance, Not only every detail of the project was planned and overseen before its execution, but the whole project was financed before the economic outlook of the return on the investment could actually be predicted from vision to execution and result. This means to believe in an idea and take it all the way to the end, no matter what. As a result, Daniele Ferretti showed that being a risk-taker (mostly common in the American culture) is often more successful than being risk-averse (mostly common in the European culture).

No document is sent or delivered to a client before it has been reviewed and approved by the managing attorney.
