Federica Brondoni

Federica Brondoni is a Partner at the Milan office.

Federica is director of the litigation department in Giambrone's Milan office. Her impressive 26-years expertise relates to private and corporate litigation, with a particular focus on contractual issues, international arbitrations, debt collection, and employment law. She also has long-standing experience in tort liability and in medical malpractice cases.

Following a classical school education (at reputed Liceo Classico G.Berchet, in Milan), Federica graduated in Law at Milan’s prestigious Università degli Studi in 1996. She did her training period at Studio Legale Blaga where she dealt with the most different cases of civil law issues, receiving a complete and in-depth training and learning to manage the cases independently.

She was admitted to the Italian Bar in 2001, passing the exam at Milan’s Corte d’Appello, known for its severe selection, with the highest marks and with the compliments of the judging panel, composed of prestigious academics, lawyers, and magistrates..

In 2008 Federica was asked to join BDDF Studio Legale Associato (now named Genesys), a well-known legal “boutique” based in Milan but operating also on international cases. In BDDF Federica was the manager of the litigation department. Only a year later, in 2009, she became Partner of the law firm.

In 2012, curious to test her skills in a completely different professional field, Federica established a company of her own, named LetsBio!, dealing with online trade and delivery of organic food (one of Federica’s many personal interests, such as nature and books). This startup company was very well welcomed by customers and represented one of the first high quality business entity in this specific commercial area. This peculiar experience allowed Federica to understand, also from a fruitful juridical point of view put to use in the following years, the specific issues lined in managing a company.

In 2015 Federica decided to go back to the original and deeply lobed lawyer professional dimension, starting a collaboration with Studio Legale Gigante, and then in 2016 being hired as Senior Associates in LTS Studio Legale, where she perfected her experience in civil liability, medical malpractice and compensation for damages resulting from very serious injuries.

Federica and her team manage  a large number of contentious disputes, including international arbitrations and civil law cases. Her fluency in English facilitates the relationship with the many international clients.

In 2021 Giambrone appointed Federica  to develop the Italian section of Gaylawyers, UK Giambrone & Partners LGBT division.
