Dublin-based Gibson & Associates Solicitors says it has become the first Irish law firm to offer consultant opportunities to solicitors with a broad range of experience across a wide range of practice areas.
The firm says that previously in Ireland, these types of consultant solicitor roles were available only to those with specialist corporate or commercial experience.
Daireann Gibson (pictured), managing partner at Gibson & Associates Solicitors, says creating a network of consultant solicitors is a ‘no-brainer’ for the firm with the current state of the legal market.
Gibson & Associates says its consultant solicitor scheme is suitable for solicitors with a minimum of six years’ post-qualification experience.
