DWF celebrates fifth year in practice in Ireland

International legal business DWF has celebrated its fifth consecutive year in practice in Ireland and a recent period of accelerated growth.

In the past year, the firm’s Dublin office has seen a 120 per cent increase in turnover and over 50 per cent growth in client base, as well as the expansion of its team to include more than 50 people.

DWF has had a presence in Dublin since 2013 and a full service offering since 2016. It has recently strengthened its commercial team and focused on new markets in key sectors such as financial services, real estate, dispute resolution, renewables and infrastructure.

Ross Little, executive partner of DWF Ireland, said: “Ireland is a vibrant and very important economy on the global stage and DWF’s continued growth confirms our long-term commitment to the Irish market. This five-year period of sustained growth and activity is a significant milestone for DWF Ireland. We are busy and constantly winning new high-quality legal work.

“Indeed, the growth of DWF on the island of Ireland reflects our international growth model and the hard work of all our team. The success of our Ireland offering confirms our decision to commit resources to Dublin and Belfast to build a sustainable and recognised legal business.”
