K&L Gates LLP has made an immediate impact on the market since launching a Dublin office in January 2023. The firm has targeted the ETF and private funds (especially private credit) space with considerable success. It has maximised the firm’s international standing in the area along with the presence of four partners in Dublin. Leading name Gayle Bowen is managing partner of the Dublin office, with Hazel Doyle leading the team’s efforts in the ETF segment and landing a series of major engagements from large clients. Shane Geraghty is making further headway in credit funds and Michelle Lloyd brings additional international experience (particularly Asia) to the team.
