Thank you.
I am sorry but I cannot give you good news. I'm afraid you are in difficulty here.
I have to tell you the truth.
If your licences lapsed then you can't exchange it in the UK. You can renew it in Italy I suppose although I won't know the procedures there as I practise it England Wales. Or you can apply for a new licence in the UK
Im really sorry but that is the position.

Do remember that I can only give you my opinion.
Another lawyer may have a different opinion. Litigation needs at least 2 parties and neither goes to court expecting to lose.
Nonetheless, one of them does, even though they have been told by their respective legal advisers that they have a good chance of success.
If there was a black-and-white answer to every legal problem there would be no need for anything to ever proceed to court.
The ultimate decision comes from a county court judge in a civil case or from the magistrate in a criminal case heard in the magistrates court or the jury in Crown Court.
Hopefully, I have answered your query in a way that is simple and easy to understand. If anything remains unclear, I will be more than happy to clarify it for you. In the meantime, thank you once again for using our services.
