DWF appoints partner Adrian Flynn in Dublin

DWF has announced the appointment of partner Adrian Flynn in the international firm’s Dublin office, where he will work with the insurance team focusing on defendant personal injury claims.

Mr Flynn, who joins from DAC Beachcroft, is an expert in personal injury insurance defence litigation and product liability claims.

With a focus on large loss claims, he predominantly deals with High Court litigation, in particular claims involving the construction and equestrian sectors. Having clients based across a wide range of jurisdictions, Mr Flynn will also be working closely with colleagues located in DWF’s other international offices.

Ross Little, executive partner in Dublin, said: “Adrian will be a real asset to the Dublin office with his in-depth knowledge of both the local and international claims markets. His expertise in the insurance market will help the practice continue growing across Ireland. I look forward to Adrian joining and helping to strengthen our insurance offering.”

Mr Flynn added: “DWF provides a solid platform on which to expand its offering for local clients with its strong international links, providing more services and, with the existing insurance team in Dublin, helping to grow its claims practice. Now is the perfect time to disrupt the market and deliver more innovative services for clients, enabling DWF Dublin to continue to make sizeable inroads into the market.”

In the last year, DWF Dublin has increased its client base by 50 per cent and now employs more than 50 people.
