M v C
Isabella represented the wife in a very complex divorce. When, due to her husband’s debts, the family home was repossessed by the bank, the wife had no place to live and no financial help from the husband who abandoned the family.
During the Court case, Isabella managed to secure the return to the family home for her Client and daughter, blocking the possibility for the bank to dispose of it for 9 years. The case was in the end also settled amicably and the husband agreed to pay monthly maintenance for the child.

Great support from Isabella Giannone on my family law matter!
Isabella dealt with my family law matter. She kept me updated throughout and was efficient in her time.
The matter was concluded way ahead of my expectations which was down to her hard work and the thoroughness towards the preparation of the court documents.
Thank you again!

Legal Matters in Italy(First Class Service)
I would highly recommend IMD Solicitors.
From start to finish I was blown away by the level of quality and help I received from Isabella Giannone during a very complex children proceedings in Italy .
She made an extremely stressful and very difficult time much easier and made me feeling confident and much more at ease, knowing my case was in great hands with a good amount of empathy and compassion.
I’m very happy about the level of legal assistance I received and I definitely recommend Isabella Giannone.

I recommend Isabella
I contacted Isabella in an emergency situation with the police and DAIS involved. I was very scared and very confused about what I could do in this situation, especially as not being British, my legal situation was linked to another country. She helped me through two long years of complex proceedings for divorce, NMO and child arrangements involving four statements, Cafcass reports, Police disclosure, a Psychological Assessment through an external agency and representation through a Barrister in five court hearings with the last bundle of documents for the hearing comprising of 389 pages. We never missed a deadline and Isabella worked late hours and on days when she would have been off. On Court hearing days, when she couldn’t be present, she always managed to send her thoughts and a message through. The proceedings are closed now but, as I still need it, I will continue to use her services.

Great, fairly priced advice
I am based in the UK and was being engaged by an Italian client as a supplier. The contract was governed by Italian law so I solicited advice from a UK-based avvocato to give advice.
IMD offered a competitive price - in excess of 70% lower than other quotes - and Isabella gave me pragmatic, easy-to-understand advice on the contract. She was also able to meet me within a day of my original enquiry which was appreciated.
Excellent service and very much recommended.
