When to get in touch

It's worth speaking with an immigration lawyer in Turin when a residence permit (permesso di soggiorno) is refused, not renewed, or revoked, when you need to file or challenge an international-protection claim, or when a removal or deportation order arrives. It becomes even more urgent if someone is held in a repatriation detention centre (CPR), where the time limits to respond are often only a few days. As a native English and Italian speaker, Anna can handle the whole matter in either language, from the first conversation through to any stage before a judge.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get an English-speaking immigration lawyer in Turin?

Yes. Anna Muscat is a native English and Italian speaker and can handle the whole immigration matter in English, from the first consultation through to any stage before a judge, without a translation layer.

What does an immigration lawyer in Turin deal with?

Anna assists foreign nationals with residence permits, the various forms of international protection, and proceedings connected with removal and repatriation. Each situation is assessed on its own facts, in Italian or English.

My residence permit was refused or not renewed — what can I do?

As a rule, a refusal or non-renewal of a residence permit (permesso di soggiorno) can be reviewed and, where the law allows, challenged before the competent court within time limits that are often short. It's best to have the decision assessed as early as possible so that no deadline is missed.

What is international protection?

International protection generally covers refugee status and subsidiary protection, granted to people at risk of persecution or serious harm in their home country. The application follows a specific procedure and, if it is refused, an appeal is usually available; the options depend on the individual case.

What should I do about a deportation order or detention in a CPR?

A removal order or detention in a repatriation detention centre (CPR) needs to be dealt with urgently, because the time limits to respond are very tight. It is important to contact a lawyer immediately to review the order, the validation hearing before the judge, and the available options.

What is family reunification (ricongiungimento familiare)?

Family reunification is, in general terms, the procedure that lets a person holding a suitable residence permit bring certain family members to Italy, provided the income and housing requirements are met; the relative then receives a permit for family reasons. It falls within residence-permit matters, and the requirements need to be checked on the specific facts.
