Becker Launches Office in Milan, Italy as Center of European Hub
The firm will provide U.S. corporate law and lobbying services to European companies engaged in international business
Milan, April 28, 2025 – Becker, a U.S.-based multidisciplinary law firm with 18 offices across the United States, announces the opening of its new office in Milan, which will serve as the firm’s European hub.
With deep expertise in U.S. law, federal (Washington D.C.) and state-level government relations, Becker positions itself as a key partner for European companies seeking to enter or expand within the U.S. market. The new European hub, a unique offering among independent American law firms, provides integrated U.S. legal and lobbying support directly from Europe—ensuring businesses receive high-level strategic and operational assistance for their cross-border activities.
The Milan office will be led by Gabriel Monzon Cortarelli, Partner and Head of the International Practice Group for Europe and Latin America. The opening of the Milan office marks a key milestone in the firm’s global growth journey, reinforcing its central role in providing U.S. legal and institutional counsel on an international scale.
“With a new administration in the United States and a growing need for European companies to expand overseas—especially in light of recent White House policies—the opening of Becker’s Milan office comes at a pivotal moment,” said Gabriel Monzon Cortarelli. “Our presence in Italy reflects Becker’s commitment to being a strategic partner for businesses, Italian and European law firms, and EU institutions. Milan and Italy serve as the ideal bridge between Europe and the U.S.: from here, we will provide tailored support to those looking to grow beyond borders.”
Becker’s international practice stands out for its interdisciplinary approach and its ability to seamlessly integrate legal and institutional expertise. With professionals operating across 18 U.S. offices, and now through its European hub in Milan, the firm offers specialized support for foreign direct investments in both directions—Europe to the U.S., and vice versa. The firm’s country desks—covering Italy, France, Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Nordic countries—are staffed by bilingual professionals with in-depth cultural and legal knowledge, capable of delivering high-value strategic advice to clients.
