About

As the third largest insurer in Ireland, AXA Insurance provides a whole range of products to customers across the country. A subsidiary of the French insurance giant AXA, the company is engaged in the sale of car, home, small business, commercial vehicle and taxi insurance products. The company is one of the largest insurance businesses in Ireland, and has around 850,000 car insurance customers in the country. The legal team at the core of the company demonstrates a remarkable capability to support a number of significant company operations, while simultaneously navigating legal support on a range of strategic issues faced by the company. Over the last couple of years, the company’s lawyers have been credited for their contributions to many significant company initiatives including a recent, significant downsizing of company operations. The team is currently led by Deirdre Fagan – one of the most esteemed corporate lawyers in the country’s insurance sector, thanks to her over-decade-long career as a senior in-house counsel in the insurance industry.
