Giuseppe Codacci Pisanelli was the son of Alfredo Codacci Pisanelli, a law professor at the University of Rome, a liberal, undersecretary and deputy of the Kingdom, and grandson of Giuseppe Pisanelli, a jurist and Minister of Grace and Justice of the Kingdom of Italy. He graduated in law and in political science and became a free lecturer in Administrative Law in 1940 at the University of Macerata, Captain of the cavalry during the Second World War and in 1943, entered the judiciary, was an auditor at the court of Rome and praetor of Tricase. In 1944 he entered as a volunteer in the Italian Co-belligerent Army and was sent as an observer for Italy at the Nuremberg trial. In 1946 he returned to teaching at the University of Rome and in 1953 at the University of Bari.

He was rector of the Salento University Consortium from 1955 to 1976, and remained director of the Institute of Legal and Economic Sciences.

In 1946 he was elected to the Constituent Assembly for Christian Democracy in the Lecce constituency. He was deputy several times from the I to the IV legislature (1948–1968). He was briefly Minister of defence in the 8th De Gasperi cabinet (1953). In 1954 he became provincial secretary of the DC of Lecce and commissioner of that of Bari. From 1958 to 1960 he was vice-president of the foreign commission of the Chamber of Deputies. Then he served as Minister for relations with the Parliament in the Fanfani III and IV (July 1960 – June 1963) and Leone (June – December 1963) governments.
