Urbano Cairo

I have been working with Paolo for ten years and I believe that Torino was one of his first clients. Lombardi Associates has assisted Torino Football Club in many transfers and has successfully represented our club in disputes before FIFA, UEFA and CAS. Paolo is our first contact in case of regulatory issues and we have always been pleased with his work.
