    In the second episode from Italy, Kate visits Curtis’ Milan office, located in one of the stunning historic neighbourhoods, a stone's throw away from Milan’s architectural landmark, the Duomo. Here, she chats with four of the partners, each with fascinating backgrounds in fashion, litigation, corporate and the firm’s staple international arbitration:

    • Fashion lawyer Daniela Della Rosa on how commercial, contract, M&A and IP law all play a role in her work as a fashion lawyer – and advice to those hoping to specialise in the area themselves.
    • Litigator Edoardo Zucchelli on the vital role of teamwork in helping clients from very different culture to navigate international trade law, including EU and UN sanctions work;
    • Corporate international and private equity lawyer Paolo Cocchini on the travel and social elements of working at Curtis, and on cooperating on building a practice with other offices; and
    • International arbitration lawyer Irene Petrelli – leader of Curtis’s Italian arbitration team – on how culturally diverse colleagues from a range of legal backgrounds give an edge to the firm’s international arbitration advice, as well as enhancing her life at work.
