Legal market overview
Within Legal market overview,
The alternative investment market remains a stalwart source of work in Ireland with offshore funds increasingly ‘onshoring’ their products to take advantage of the lower corporate tax rates and a better regulated market. Both Dechert LLP and Walkers have started to establish local practices with launches in Dublin. Walkers turned to domestic firms Matheson Ormsby Prentice and William Fry for a series of eye-catching hires, and Maples and Calder recruited Stephen Carty from Eversheds. It seems unlikely that there will be any more new international entrants into an already overcrowded Dublin.
