Company with sole shareholder under the direction and coordination
"Direzione e coordinamento" seems to be a statutory phrase, so I would keep the translation as close as possible to the original. See Art. 2497-5: http://www.altalex.com/documents/news/2013/04/11/direzione-e...

Agree with Philgoddard that it's tautological in English but it's probably so in Italian too. My choice would be to leave it alone if it's statutory. Legal terms may be tautological because derived from multiple historical cliches, like "all the rest, residue, and remainder" or "information and belief." No one wants to be the first to clean them up if it might raise suspicions of a possible change in intended meaning.
If I were striving for better writing I would say "direction and control" rather than "controlled by" because at least the former is still a clumsy legal cliche which is what we want.
"The degree of direction and control a person or organization exercises over someone they contract with to perform a task is always a central issue in determining an employer-employee relationship." http://www.wcb.ny.gov/content/main/Employers/Coverage_wc/emp...

Comment: "Thanks to you all. I agree it's tautology, but as it's so also in Italian, I'll be leaving it that way in English too. "
