FFF Legal

FFF Legal is the brand of Fenech Farrugia Fiott Legal, a Maltese law firm founded in 2009. It advises financial, payment and blockchain projects on licensing and compliance.

Practice areas

The firm lists five lines of work: financial and fintech licensing, blockchain regulation, MGA gaming applications, corporate law, and disputes and debt recovery. The first two are the core for payment institutions and crypto businesses seeking authorisation in Malta. Gaming applications to the Malta Gaming Authority, corporate work and dispute resolution add services that a company often needs once it is operating.

Market

Malta is the only stated jurisdiction. Regulators other than the MGA, licence numbers and registration details are not given.

Choosing the firm

A multi-practice firm can be convenient for a startup that needs a licence, a corporate structure and, later, help with a commercial dispute from the same team. The trade-off is that depth in each area varies, so it is worth asking which partners lead the payment, crypto and gaming work and how many comparable applications they have handled. Fees and timelines are not published and should be discussed directly.
