From defining the right market-entry structure to negotiating acquisitions, setting up payroll, or steering fiscal and legal risk, we assign clear points of contact for every area. We analyze your international business plan, deliver current economic and regulatory insight, and coordinate specialists who execute seamlessly.
After more than a decade advising international clients, we’ve learned that each company’s know-how is an asset to protect, enhance, and deploy (especially in new markets like Italy and Spain). With Agora Iuris, you gain local strength, international perspective, and a partner who thinks like you.
M&A, market entry, and day-to-day legal, tax, labor, and accounting: tailored to how your business thinks.
Alfredo leads Agora Iuris’s cross-border platform between Italy and Spain. A dual-admitted lawyer (Barcelona and Milan, since 2007), he founded FormaItalia in 2008 after working closely with Spanish companies operating in Italy and identifying their real, on-the-ground needs. He coordinates multidisciplinary teams across legal, tax, labor, and administrative workstreams to deliver clear, business-first outcomes.
Alfredo began practicing in Italy in 2007 after collaborating with Barcelona law firms. In 2008 he launched FormaItalia to provide Spanish companies with a culturally aligned, execution-driven partner in the Italian market—an approach that continues to define the firm’s “Your way to Italy and Spain” ethos.

He specializes in market entry, cross-border operations, and M&A support—aligning tax efficiency with operational accuracy so international clients can scale confidently in Italy and Spain.
