The two firms, both founded over 100 years ago, say the merger will strengthen both firms’ ability to deliver expert legal services across a broad range of practice areas.

McKeever Taylor is known for its deep expertise in commercial and property law, acting for both businesses and individuals, while Tallan Solicitors has a strong foundation in litigation, employment law, and family law.

Partner Robert Taylor said: “As a third-generation Taylor in this firm, I believe this is an exciting milestone for both firms and for our clients.

“By coming together as McKeever Tallan LLP, we are combining our strengths to offer a more comprehensive service while upholding the values of integrity, expertise, and client care that have defined us for years.”

Partner Sheila Cooney added: “Our shared history, built on a legacy of trust and professionalism, is what makes this merger so significant.

“We are looking forward to continuing to serve the Drogheda community with an even stronger and more versatile team.”

The combined firm will operate from 31 Laurence Street, Drogheda, Co Louth.
