Gaeilgeoir joins JWOD defence litigation team

Leading Cork firm JW O’Donovan Solicitors has appointed Ciara Lehane to its litigation team which is a sign of increased activity in defence litigation for corporate clients.

Ciara Lehane makes the move south after three years in defence litigation with a leading Dublin firm.

Ciara Lehane is a fluent Irish speaker and is enrolled on Clár na Gaeilge (a register of fluent Irish speaking solicitors maintained by the Law Society of Ireland).
