ADVANT Nctm announces Patrizio Bernardo as a new partner in the Labour departmen…
Nctm Studio Legale has been selected as the Italian Member of the Employment Law Alliance (ELA), the world’s largest network of lawyers specialising in employment law, labour relations and immigration, recognized by Chambers and Partners as the “Top Ranked Elite Law Firm Network” in the Global 2021 ranking.
Each country participates with only one law firm for its territory, except for the United States and Canada, where there is one firm for each Member State.
“The appointment as the Italian Member of the ELA is an important recognition for Nctm and its Employment Law and Industrial Relations Department”, says Michele Bignami, Head of the Employment Law and Industrial Relations Department, “but, above all, it is an enhancement of the offer of international legal services for Italian companies and clients”.
Founded in San Francisco in 2000 and present in more than 171 countries, the ELA distinguishes itself from competitors as a provider of comprehensive employment law assistance, including by encouraging the participation of experts from practice areas other than employment law.
The ELA has also set up a Next Generation Group to foster dialogue among the younger generation and a more lasting relationship between law firms.
“The entry into the ELA guarantees to Nctm’s clients that they will be supported with reliable legal assistance abroad and to the Firm potential new clients who want to operate in Italy", continues Michele Bignami, “Nctm has a team of 21 professionals dedicated to Employment Law and we were the answer to what ELA was looking for.”
“We are delighted that Nctm is joining our network. The firm’s reputation for delivering creative and innovative solutions for HR legal challenges is well known. Their sophisticated client base fits perfectly with our client profile. This is an ideal match for us” commented Steve Hirschfeld, CEO and Founder, Employment Law Alliance.
