Ms Carty, a partner in the firm’s litigation and dispute resolution team, was presented with the Irish award in the Litigation category at an awards dinner in London.

A lawyer can only be nominated for a Client Choice Award by a corporate or in-house counsel. The award criteria focus on a nominee’s ability to give excellent advice beyond the other players in the market.

Ms Carty acts in a wide range of commercial cases with particular expertise in financial services disputes, professional negligence actions and judicial reviews against public bodies.

She advises on high-profile cases before the Irish courts and on complex regulatory compliance and investigations.

Ms Carty also regularly lectures and tutors on commercial litigation and is the vice-chair of the litigation committee of the Law Society of Ireland.

Managing partner Bryan Bourke said: “We are delighted that Lisa has been recognised by Client Choice with this prestigious award.

“Lisa is a top-notch lawyer and adviser, she is a leading litigator in the Dublin market and is particularly highly regarded in complex regulatory disputes.

“Lisa is a valued member in William Fry’s market-leading litigation and dispute resolution group - this award is a testament to both Lisa’s skill and her industry standing, and we are very proud to have Lisa as part of the William Fry team.”
