ByrneWallace has been shortlisted for the Chambers Europe Awards - Ireland Law Firm of the Year 2017 by international legal directory Chambers & Partners.

The Chambers Europe Awards honour the work of national and international law firms across Europe on the basis of research for the upcoming edition of Chambers Europe.
