Ms Kelleher has been promoted to partner in the firm’s healthcare department. Having joined CKT in 2015, she previously practised in Dublin and London with Weightmans LLP.

She is also a CEDR Accredited Mediator with extensive experience in resolving complex health and social care disputes on behalf of leading indemnifiers and public bodies.

Ms O’Keeffe has joined the firm as Partner, having previously held the position of University Solicitor with University College Cork. She managed the team of legal advisors to the University for eight years.

Ms O’Keeffe provided strategic advice and practical legal solutions on commercial, corporate, intellectual property and collaborative projects involving State and multinational partners, in addition to litigation and administrative law matters. She brings a wealth of experience, having previously worked in a large commercial practice in Dublin.
