Sarah Cartasegna studied law at the University of Perugia in Italy and then undertook an LL.M. at University College London. Having qualified as Italian lawyer in 1999, she worked for Cesaris & Nunziante and for Coudert Brothers in Rome. In 2002 she moved to Milan to work for Allen & Overy in the fields of M&A and corporate and commercial law.

"I am thrilled to have brought a new and unique business to the Italian legal market and I believe strongly that Italian lawyers are ready to appreciate our distinctive approach to legal recruitment. I enjoy facing challenges which require the use of my personality and intuitive skills, as well as my professional background as a lawyer, to fulfil the needs of our candidates and clients. Working in a team structure with like minded professionals at Shilton Sharpe Quarry helps me to focus on delivering a top quality service."
