The provided main sample document has the following structure:
- a cover page with style Default Style
- a manual page break to switch to page style CorpoDocumento
- a page CorpoDocumento with a section and a linked document for chapter 1.1
- a manual break to switch to page style CopertinaManuale
- a page CopertinoManuale with a section and a linked document for chapter 1.1.1
Due to the presence of manual page breaks, it is absolutely normal that the inserted sections start at top of pages. If I delete the page breaks, sections follows one another without spacing between them.
Tip: to display on-screen the formatting instructions, enable View

. Added page breaks (i.e. those that are not the result of text flow) appear as blue dotted lines between pages.
To fix your problem, study the defined page styles and their intended use. For example, it looks to me that CopertinaManuale or Copertina should be used for the cover page instead of Default Style. Similarly, CorpoDocumento is probably intended for content pages and UltimaPagina for the back cover.
It is up to you. Contact the original style designer. He/She might give you good advices.
Also, I think that you can avoid using sections (which complicates document structure and may create stability issues – I experienced some and hit strange update behaviour) by setting a master document and referencing your clause documents. Sections are useful mainly when the section has a different number of columns than the surrounding text. Here, you can include the file directly without embedding it in a section. But master/slave documents is a neat feature to maintain a clean relationship between various documents whereas Insert
>File
copies content (except when the link option is checked but you may forget to do it).
