Located in Dublin, at the heart of Ireland’s EU technology regulation hub, we advise clients at the forefront of innovation and development.

Our team is composed of the leading tech advisory and litigation lawyers in Ireland.
The successful applicant will work closely with the Tech Group partners in maintaining and shaping the Group’s awareness of legal and practice developments in Ireland and the EU.
