“One and the same” person court orders

Sometimes while pursuing dual citizenship, whether Italian citizenship or otherwise, you may at some point be told to produce a ‘one and the same” person court order to address discrepancies in your vital records/documents. I assisted a U.S. national pursuing her dual Italian citizenship at the consulate in Bucharest, Romania with one of these court orders. The Italian consulate in Romania specifically told her to produce this court order or they could not proceed with her application. One of her ancestor’s names was spelled differently on his death certificate than it was on the remainder of his vital records. I successfully petitioned the New York County Supreme Court in Manhattan for the one and the same person court order, also known as an “OATS”. Representing a client before the New York State Supreme court in a civil matter, from commencement to conclusion, is a serious undertaking. Hence, our services are typically for those who are seriously considering dual citizenship as an investment in their future, who see the added value in hiring a professional, and see legal fees as worth the investment.
