Bio
Federico Baglini
Italian lawyer with an IT background
Federico Baglini began his career in the IT field in 2001, while still a scientific high school student, working as a technical consultant, sales manager, and administrative assistant.
After obtaining a bachelor’s degree in Business Law in 2007 and a master’s degree in Law in 2009 with full marks, he immediately began his training to become a lawyer, gaining experience in various areas of civil law: from property law to contract law, from family law to inheritance law.
In the meantime he perfected his skills by attending the “M. De André” Post-Graduate Legal Training School in Genoa.
After successfully passing the bar exam in 2013 on his first try, he became a member of the Genoa Bar Association in 2014 and opened his firms in Genoa first, and then in Chiavari and Milan.
The experience he acquired in the information technology sector has proven fundamental to his legal practice, from managing electronic trials to practicing privacy law, and it has also enhanced the investigative aspect of his work.
He has further expanded his activity into the field of immigration, specifically assisting individuals applying for Italian citizenship or seeking to relocate their lives or businesses to Italy, and helping them obtain visas and residence permits.
