Who we are

Domestic experience and an international outlook, attention to detail and the initiative to explore new legal frontiers. We are continually focused on staying ahead of our clients’ needs.

Founded in the mid-1990s, Jacobacci Avvocati was established with the aim of becoming a leading firm in intellectual property protection in Italy and abroad.

The firm’s roots lie in a family legacy, the IP consulting firm Jacobacci & Partners was founded in 1872. This unique history is not merely a remnant of the past, but a force that drives the evolution of the firm.

Today, the firm boasts a well-established team of 15 partners and over 40 attorneys working seamlessly across four offices in Italy and France. This is more than just a group of individual professionals: the firm’s expertise is amplified through collaboration and an environment that fosters organic development and shared growth.

Starting with founding partner Fabrizio Jacobacci, who is internationally recognised for his expertise in patent litigation and life sciences, all of our professionals combine analytical rigour with specialisation in various fields of intellectual property. From the protection of trademarks and patents to design rights, we develop bespoke strategies to enhance the innovative ideas of a national and international client base, operating across a wide range of sectors and technology areas.

Over the years, our team has represented clients in cases involving particularly complex legal issues, setting groundbreaking precedents and obtaining landmark rulings in Italian and European courts across a wide range of areas. 

For generations, Jacobacci Avvocati has been guided by an international outlook. We do not merely speak our clients' languages, we understand their culture and business models.

Our vision is grounded in an international framework that traverses regulatory and geographical borders. We operate with a global mindset, particularly in complex multinational cases and transactions of significant strategic importance.

Our Paris office is currently guided by a team of eight professionals, who work closely with our Italian offices, ensuring clients receive seamless, coordinated assistance across Europe. The choice to establish a presence in Paris was not accidental: in addition to being a major legal and economic centre, it is home to one of the three Central Divisions of the Unified Patent Court (UPC), a key institution for the protection of intellectual property in Europe. A presence in Paris allows our firm to act promptly and competently on issues of international importance, offering an increasingly strategic and integrated level of legal services.
