Lacey Solicitors > Firm Profile
Lacey Solicitors offers specialist defence legal services to the insurance industry and prides itself on the exemplary, accessible service it provides. It delivers tailored training to insurers in all matters pertinent to litigation. It offers a comprehensive legal service to insurers with three offices across the entire island of Ireland.
The firm: Lacey Solicitors was founded in September 2005 by Terry Lacey and promptly stood out in the Irish legal market as a boutique law firm specialising in insurance defence litigation. The opening of its Dublin office served only to cement its position as a key player in the Irish insurance legal market.
The growth in the firm is in part due to the building and maintenance of established relationships with insurance clients and self-insured clients, and also in part arising from clients’ increasingly robust stance on a perceptible increase in fraudulent claims experienced generally in recent years.
The firm has always maintained its reputation for being both reasonable yet very competent combatants. With its extensive experience in a niche and specialist area of law, the partnership likes to think that it is considered among the best in its field.
Types of work undertaken: The firm is distinguished for its expertise in the defence and rebuttal of intricate past and future loss of earning claims arising out of catastrophic and complex injury claims. Each case is handled according to a tailored and agreed strategy to best protect clients’ interests and drive a timely resolution of an action at a fair and appropriate level of damages.
Insurance: acting for insurers is the mainstay of the practice. Lacey Solicitors prides itself on the exemplary service it provides to insurance clients in Ireland and beyond. The lawyers regularly travel to provide bespoke training to insurers’ staff in all matters pertinent to litigation in Ireland, north and south. For underwriters and insurers that do not have a physical presence in Ireland, the firm provides cost-effective, cradle-to-grave claims handling as well as a complete uninsured loss recovery service to commercial brokers and their clients.
Travel law for insurers: Lacey Solicitors provides a wide range of expertise in travel law.
