Five to begin solicitor careers at Walkers
Five newly qualified solicitors are to begin their careers at Walkers as associates after completing their 24-month training programme.
With admission to the Law Society due this month, the five will work across four of the firm’s divisions: asset finance; asset management and investment funds; finance and capital markets; and regulatory and risk advisory.
The five new solicitors are:
- Emma Jackson,
- Dylan Kirwan,
- Conor McCabe,
- Aoife O’Leary, and
- Coleen Wegmann.
Hands-on training
During their training they attended the Law Society’s nine-month Professional Practice Course (PPC) and completed rotations across a number of practice areas in the firm, receiving hands-on training and mentoring from partners and associates.
Jonathan Sheehan (managing partner) said: “Each has shown dedication, adaptability, and a commitment to excellence in their legal training with us.”
Since launching in 2015, Walkers’ programme in Ireland has supported 48 trainee solicitors in completing their training.
