Avv. Luana Bozza

Luana Bozza is a lawyer of the Milan Bar, admitted in 2025, and of counsel at Legal Aid, where she practises at the Milan office and works on the firm's matters on an ongoing basis, while maintaining her own professional practice. A Law graduate with full marks from the University of Milan, she devoted her studies to criminal law, with a thesis on substitute sanctions for short prison sentences, a topic that has become highly relevant again following the 2022 reform that redesigned the system.

She completed her traineeship at a Milan criminal law firm, where she gained experience in substantive and procedural criminal law and in prison law, and from January 2023, once authorised to act as a substitute lawyer, she independently handled hearings and case files. She attended the Bar School of the Milan Bar Association and qualified to practise law in June 2024.

Her practice focuses on the defence of suspects and defendants and on assisting victims of crimes against property, the person and the family and of drug offences, with specific attention to personal liberty: precautionary and pre-precautionary proceedings, validation of arrest and detention, review and appeal of precautionary measures, extradition and European arrest warrant procedures. At Legal Aid this expertise complements that of the founding partner in international judicial cooperation and applies in economic proceedings whenever a charge affects the entrepreneur or director personally through restrictive measures or surrender requests from other States.

She completed her training with a qualifying course on the criminal liability of entities under Legislative Decree no. 231/2001, a core area of the firm's practice, and speaks fluent Spanish, which enables her to assist Spanish-speaking clients and to follow cooperation procedures with Spanish-speaking countries.
