Vincenzo di Lorenzo Sarappa

Experience at Studio Legale Sarappa

Avv. Vincenzo di Lorenzo Sarappa is a partner at Studio Legale Sarappa, a boutique law firm founded in 1947 by the late Avv. Giovanni Antonio Sarappa. The founder specialized in property law and inheritance law. In 1981, his daughter, Avv. Anna Sarappa, joined the firm as an associate. She worked alongside her father in his areas of expertise while also developing specializations of her own, particularly in family law, property law, and inheritance law. Her practice has included a strong international component, with a focus on legal matters involving Italian and American citizens, especially those residing in New Jersey and New York. She has handled numerous cases concerning divorce, legal separation, succession, and the protection of property rights.

Today, Studio Legale Sarappa operates as a professional association formed by Avv. Anna Sarappa and her sons, Avv. Vincenzo di Lorenzo Sarappa, who joined the firm in 2011, and Avv. Gianpiero di Lorenzo Sarappa, who joined in 2012.

Avv. Vincenzo has developed expertise in property law and cross-border successions. Through hands-on experience, he has also acquired significant managerial skills in real estate management and oversight.

The three partners, each with their own areas of specialization, primarily handle domestic cases. However, thanks to longstanding relationships in the United States and across the EU, the firm’s international caseload has been steadily increasing—particularly in the areas of family law, cross-border successions, and property law.

The firm has further strengthened its international presence through its involvement in prominent legal associations. In 2014, Vincenzo joined the International Association of Young Lawyers (AIJA), followed by his brother Gianpiero in 2017. AIJA offers valuable opportunities for professional development, including courses on emerging legal trends influenced by globalization and artificial intelligence.

In addition, both Vincenzo and Gianpiero became members of the Academy of European Law (ERA) in January 2018. ERA provides access to a robust network within the EU and offers high-level legal training, further enhancing the firm’s expertise in European legal matters.
