Corporate & Legal services

Our Corporate & Legal services team consists of 11 dedicated staff members, including a partner, one director and four managers. We regularly engage and have contact with staff from both the Companies Registration Office and the Revenue Commissioners.

We work closely with our colleagues in Audit, Tax and Financial Advisory services and other specialist departments and external advisers on more complex arrangements and transactions.
