To further develop our employment capabilities across Ireland, we joined forces with Northern Ireland’s leading specialist employment law firm, Jones Cassidy Brett, to establish our Belfast office in August 2021. This provides clients with seamless access to the best employment law advice and wider complementary workplace, people and HR services across the UK and Ireland. Building on the success of our office in Dublin, this ensures we are best positioned to support our client’s evolving employment law needs across the whole of the UK and the island of Ireland.
Our team includes 3 partners and 4 associates, as well as a professional development lawyer, trainee solicitor and 2 paralegals in the employment team and a partner and 6 paralegals in the immigration team. The team is local and based in NI with a deep knowledge of the legal concerns relevant to the sector that we are advising our clients in. Our team is known for our strength in our immigration and global mobility work for our clients and our success is demonstrated by the quality of the clients that are coming to us for advice on their most complex and sensitive employment matters.
