Recovering Unpaid Debts in Italy from Abroad
Recovering unpaid debts in Italy can be particularly challenging when creditors are based abroad and must deal with Italian debtors who are unresponsive or unwilling to pay.
Distance, language barriers and unfamiliarity with Italian legal procedures often make it difficult for foreign individuals and companies to understand how to act, which steps are required and whether recovery is realistically achievable under Italian law.
Without direct legal assistance in Italy, creditors may face delays, ineffective actions or unnecessary costs when attempting to enforce their rights against Italian counterparties.
For this reason, debt recovery actions in Italy should be handled by an Italian debt collection lawyer based in Italy, acting directly within the Italian legal system.
Studio Legale Giorgianni acts as an Italian debt collection lawyer, providing legal representation, court proceedings and judicial enforcement under Italian law. Claim-management or automated recovery services are not offered.
Why Debt Collection in Italy Requires a Local Lawyer
Debt collection in Italy is governed by Italian law and follows specific procedural rules that differ significantly from those applied in other jurisdictions.
Legal actions, court proceedings, enforcement measures and communications with Italian authorities must be carried out locally and in compliance with Italian procedural requirements. When creditors are based abroad, managing these aspects without direct legal representation in Italy can lead to delays, procedural errors or ineffective recovery attempts.
Working with an Italian lawyer based in Italy ensures that debt recovery actions are handled directly within the Italian legal system, with proper coordination of extrajudicial measures, judicial proceedings and enforcement activities when required.
This local presence allows foreign creditors to rely on a single legal point of reference capable of assessing enforceability, selecting the appropriate recovery strategy and interacting effectively with Italian courts and counterparties.
How We Assist with Debt Collection in Italy
Studio Legale Giorgianni assists foreign individuals and international companies with debt collection matters in Italy by providing direct legal assistance as an Italian debt collection lawyer, handling each phase of the recovery process in accordance with Italian law.
Assistance may include, depending on the circumstances of the case:
- Out-of-court debt recovery actions, aimed at obtaining voluntary payment through formal legal notices and negotiations with the debtor
- Judicial proceedings, when extrajudicial efforts are ineffective or inappropriate
- Enforcement measures, to recover the debt through legally available remedies once an enforceable title is obtained
Each matter is assessed individually to determine whether recovery is feasible and which legal options may be appropriate within the Italian legal system, taking into account the nature of the claim, the debtor’s position and enforceability considerations.
Who This Service Is For
This service is intended for foreign individuals and international companies that have unpaid debts in Italy and require legal assistance from an Italian debt collection lawyer to assess recovery options under Italian law.
Typical clients include:
- International companies with unpaid invoices or commercial claims against Italian counterparties
- Foreign suppliers or service providers seeking to recover outstanding payments in Italy
- Private individuals based abroad with personal claims against Italian debtors
- Foreign professionals or law firms requiring local legal support for enforcement actions in Italy
This service is not intended for mass claims or automated recovery processes, but for situations requiring legal assessment, direct handling and structured case management within the Italian legal system.
