His career began with visa and residence permit applications<\/strong> and later expanded into Italian citizenship law<\/strong>, handling judicial appeals against administrative silence<\/strong> and fast-tracking citizenship applications<\/strong> for residency and marriage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Over the years, through key professional encounters, he gained expertise in Italian citizenship by descent (iure sanguinis)<\/strong>, particularly focusing on judicial recognition of citizenship for Italian descendants<\/strong>. His work naturally led him to Brazil<\/strong>, home to one of the largest populations of Italian descendants<\/strong>, where he quickly established professional connections<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As an expert in the field, he has been invited as a guest speaker at major conferences<\/strong> on immigration law and Italian citizenship<\/strong>, focusing on topics such as \u201cmigration risk\u201d<\/strong>, a key reason for visa refusals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In 2017<\/strong>, he transformed his legal practice<\/strong> from an individual practice to a structured team<\/strong>, hiring professionals\u2014particularly Brazilian nationals<\/strong>, such as an interpreter-translator<\/strong> and a Brazilian lawyer<\/strong>\u2014to cater to the firm\u2019s strong client base from Brazil<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Later, he expanded the team<\/strong> by hiring Italian professionals<\/strong> to strengthen the firm\u2019s immigration and naturalisation law departments<\/strong>. The firm also collaborates with numerous external professionals<\/strong> in Italy and abroad<\/strong>, ensuring a high standard of legal services<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

By early 2020<\/strong>, Boschetti Law Firm<\/strong> was handling nearly 600 active cases at the Rome Court<\/strong> related to Italian citizenship<\/strong>, alongside hundreds of other legal proceedings<\/strong> concerning immigration law<\/strong>, primarily extrajudicial matters<\/strong>, with documented success stories<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
