Lawyer Rankings

Ireland > Dispute resolution

Addleshaw Goddard has dispute resolution at the heart of its Dublin practice, with a large team of senior, mid-ranking and junior lawyers. It represents a mix of domestic and international businesses and financial institutions, the latter group growing as a consequence of the Dublin office’s integration into the international firm. Public and state bodies are also part of the client base. Professional negligence, financial services disputes, media and broadcasting, product liability and personal injury, banking enforcement and regulatory cases form a large proportion of the practice. Ronan O’Neill remains a big name in the market, including in financial and regulatory cases. Caoilfhionn Ní Chuanacháin is a leading talent in financial services litigation, property cases and professional negligence. Department head Maura Connolly is noted for employment and regulatory disputes, while Paul Dempsey is rated for insolvency and debt recovery cases. David Heneghan was promoted to partner in 2023 and Terry Leggett has retired.
