Caterina Ranieri and her great team helped us with obtaining records required for Italian Dual Citizenship from the State of NY that could only be obtained with a court order. What seems like a simple request was more complicated than it appears on the surface. Her legal advice and guidance through the process were extremely helpful in getting the outcome we needed. Her team was always great with responding to questions along the process. We feel that we were very fortunate to have found Caterina and highly recommend her services.

Had the pleasure of working with Caterina and her colleague, Franck. They spent 30 minutes on the phone explaining exactly how I could help my daughter get her Italian citizenship. The information I had beforehand was completely convoluted and confusing. They helped me understand exactly what I needed to do, which turned out to be a lot easier than what I previously knew. They did not try to get my business, rather just gave me advice as friends. I can’t think them enough and highly recommend them to anybody who needs help in obtaining foreign citizenship.

Caterina and her staff are very attentive, thorough, and knowledgeable. They answered every question I had and made the entire process seamless. Everything was timely prepared and correctly done. We just received the amended birth certificate this week based on the court order Caterina obtained for my family. She and her team are a pleasure to work with. I recommend her highly.

I reached out to Caterina for some help with obtaining a document for an Italian Dual Citizenship application. I had been stuck in a vital records unit and the process was going nowhere. It was a simple fix, she knew the answer right away, and she sent the required document without charging a dollar. She is a lawyer with a good conscience and a good heart. I am so grateful for her help. I expect to be returning to actually engage her services, as the application process is daunting!

Caterina was able to secure the documents and approvals from the state that I needed for my dual citizenship to move forward. I would never have been able to navigate the process with her expertise. I am so very grateful and would highly recommend Caterina. Working with her was a smooth and easy experience. THANK YOU!

I love hiring professionals who understand my needs, ask the right questions and then just "make it happen!"Caterina was truly a pleasure to work with - she was transparent about her fees and realistic in the timeline, she provided routine updates with clear, concise and 'plain english' explanations.Bottom line, working with attorneys isn't something I can get really excited about but in this instance, my situation was easily and professionally managed by Caterina and I could not be more grateful.

Caterina and her team were nothing short of amazing. Great service, communications and responsiveness. I didn't need to worry about a thing, and they accomplished my dual citizenship needs above my expectations. Highly recommended!

Due to the nature and location of my case, I wasn't able to hire Caterina as my attorney. However, she still proved to be a wonderful and knowledgeable sounding board. After a different attorney told me that there was no way I would win my case if I represented myself I was ready to forget the whole thing. Caterina encouraged me to file anyway and coached me through my concerns. I'm thrilled to say that my petition was granted by the court today and I can move forward with applying for dual citizenship! I highly recommend Caterina. She is extremely helpful!

Caterina Ranieri, is a Civil law attorney specializing in dual citizenship matters. Located out of upstate/central New York state she is extremely familiar with the workings of both local and state government procedures.In order to obtain Irish Citizenship, I needed assistance obtaining the "long form”, certified copy of my deceased mother’s birth record from New York State. Because of New York State privacy rules, and my mother being deceased, there was no way for me to obtain this birth record without getting a court order. Caterina proved to be particularly skilled in navigating the inner workings of the bureaucracies involved. Additionally, she was straight forward with me as to what steps I would need to take in assisting her. She was clear, concise, caring and professional in all of our interactions. Obstacles were never a problem, just a step along the way.When I first contacted her in May of 2020, she laid out the steps required to attain our goal, her fees (quite reasonable in my opinion) and additional likely government charges we would incur.Within approximately 6 months, I had my required paperwork in hand. I have no idea how I would have achieved this on my own. I highly recommend Caterina Ranieri in matters similar to those described above.
