A new Equity Partner with her team she will join the Milanese law firm FIVELEX, specialized in the financial sector: this is Mara Fittipaldi, former Partner of BonelliErede, who will join FIVELEX with Alessandra Iandoli and Alice Alessandri starting from the end of January 2020.
Mara Fittipaldi is an expert in Banking & Finance and has worked over the years in general lending, leverage and acquisition financing, IPO financing and real estate. You have also gained significant experience in debt restructuring operations, one of the core areas of FIVELEX in which the Firm and, in particular, the founding partner Claudio Tatozzi are particularly active and recognized by the market.
The study thus continues on its path of growth, in line with the strategy defined in 2017 consisting in strengthening its areas of excellence and in expanding the activity to selected contiguous and synergistic areas. With these additions, the number of partners rises to 8 (6 equity partners and 2 salary partners) and the base of associates further expands.
“We are very happy – they comment the two co-managing partners Alfredo Craca and Francesco Di Carlo – of Mara's entry into the Studio, together with Alessandra and Alice. It is an important step for the Firm, given that Mara's represents the first case of expansion of the equity partnership since the foundation of FIVELEX in 2014. The choice depended on Mara's human and professional qualities, on the generational factor and on the desire to create with her a new highly specialized practice of the Firm. Assistance on financing transactions constitutes a natural outlet for the Firm – considered its main industry of reference – in which we had little presence and on which we were therefore stimulated to extend our assistance first and foremost by our clients”.
“The Firm – the two continue – will continue its growth path first of all organically, enhancing the valid professionals who are part of FIVELEX. At the same time, we will continue to look outside, not with the aim of filling boxes at any cost, but aiming to select professionals with recognized expertise with whom to further strengthen the Firm in targeted areas consistent with the placement already achieved by FIVELEX on the market . At the same time, in non-core areas for the Firm, we will maintain and further consolidate the already solid partnerships built over the years with other high-quality firms with a strong focus on individual practices".
