Legalcommunity (Under 40 Report), 2025

With over ten years of experience as a litigator, Emanuele advises clients on complex domestic and cross-border litigation and arbitration at national and international level, with a strong focus on high-value commercial and corporate disputes across a wide range of industries.

He has developed extensive and well-recognised experience in post-M&A disputes, including matters relating to purchase price adjustments, earn-out mechanisms, and breaches of representations and warranties. He works closely with the corporate team throughout SPA negotiations and execution, supporting M&A transactions by helping clients minimise risk while effectively leveraging strategic advantages.

In the wake of regulatory reforms over the past decade, Emanuele has also developed significant expertise in class actions and collective injunctive proceedings, acting for clients in a broad range of disputes involving the financial, technology, and cryptocurrency sectors, as well as in follow-on actions for cartel damages. He is a member of the firm’s Global Steering Committee on Class Actions, where he brings the experience gained from numerous Italian proceedings in which he has assisted clients and contributes to the international development of the practice.

Clients value his ability to assess disputes from a broad, strategic perspective, identifying risks and opportunities beneath the surface. They also appreciate his pragmatic negotiating style and his focus on delivering efficient, commercially sound outcomes aligned with their objectives.
