Ughi e Nunziante strengthened its Milan office with the arrival of Avvocati Giovanni Maria Marini and Afra Mantoni from the international firm Jones Day.

Formerly a partner of Jones Day and a current member of the Milan and New York Bars, Giovanni Maria Marini practiced in leading law firms in Milan, Washington, London, Bruxelles and Paris, gaining a substantial experience in the corporate, finance and real estate sectors. Giovanni has now returned to Ughi e Nunziante, where he started his career as the right-hand man of Giovanni Maria Ughi, one of the founders of the Firm.

Giovanni represents several Italian and foreign clients in relation to mergers and acquisitions, corporate reorganisations, financing and real estate.

Afra Mantoni practiced in several Italian and international law firms – most recently as senior associate at Jones Day – gaining a wide range experience in civil law and specializing in data protection. Afra joined Ughi e Nunziante as partner at the Milan Office and will be responsible for all the matters relating to data protection, including the development and implementation of worldwide policies and compliance procedures for the management and protection of personal and corporate data.
