Due to the negligible standard model background, lepton flavour violating processes are a good place where to search for new physics. Models involving any kind of seesaw mechanism for the generation of neutrino masses can give a sizeble contribution to such processes provided the seesaw scale is low or there is SUSY. In this talk I will review the main features of these scenarios, paying particular attention to the relations among the branching ratios of different processes that can help to distinguish among different models.
