Criminal Defence lawyers in Italy

Criminal defence lawyers advise and represent people under investigation or facing charges, from police station interviews to hearings in the magistrates' and higher courts. They cover motoring offences, fraud, assault, and serious cases. Criminal matters move quickly and the stakes are high, so early advice, ideally before any interview, can make a significant difference to the outcome.

Italy is a civil law jurisdiction where lawyers (avvocati) are admitted to a local bar (Ordine degli Avvocati). Matters are heard in the Tribunale, the Corte di Appello and the Corte di Cassazione.

Frequently asked questions

Should I get a lawyer before a police interview?+

Yes. You have the right to legal advice before and during a police interview, and it is almost always wise to use it. A lawyer protects your position from the outset, which can be far harder to fix later.

Will I qualify for legal aid?+

Some criminal matters qualify for legal aid depending on the offence and your means. Where legal aid is not available, many lawyers offer fixed fees. Your lawyer will explain the funding options that apply to your case.

Can a lawyer help with a motoring offence?+

Yes. Speeding, drink driving, and totting-up cases can carry penalty points, fines, and disqualification. A lawyer can advise on your options and represent you, and in some cases argue exceptional hardship or a defence.

Not sure which lawyer you need?

Answer a few questions and we will map your situation and suggest next steps.
