Vanda Lops

Vanda Lops is the founder and managing partner of Lops and Associates; she has extensive experience in family and minors law, inheritance, probate matters, individual rights and freedoms, and criminal law.

She is an attorney admitted to the Italian Bar. She has experience representing both Italian and foreign clients in complex cross-border cases.

She has significant experience in estate matters, including assets under fiduciary registration, family settlement agreements, and division of the assets owned in common by the spouses.

Before founding the firm, she spent several years at leading law firms based in Italy and abroad.

In 2001, she created divorzionline.it (now studiolegalelops.it), the first Italian web portal offering legal counseling in family law matters.

In 2007, Ms. Lops formed (with Rita Bernardini and Maurizio Turco, members of the Italian Parliament) the Italian League for "fast track" divorce, which was created to reduce the time necessary to get a divorce.

Many members of the Italian Parliament, judges, and academicians joined the League. Thanks to the League's advocacy, the House of Representatives approved the fast-track divorce law on 22 April 2015.

She is a member of the International Society of Family Law and collaborates with public bodies and associations to protect women's and minors' rights and fight violence in family relationships.
