Formidable Legal Advice
Mission & History
We are committed to innovation. Phoenix is not a traditional Solicitors practice. Innovation was a cornerstone in the founding of Phoenix, and as a result we remain committed to experimenting with new ways of delivering legal services
Core Values
Our core values govern the way we work and how our firm operates. Our lawyers and staff are committed to equality and fairness in all aspects of their work
Academic Involvement
Historically it has been unheard of for academics and solicitors to work collaboratively within the confines of a solicitors’ practice. Phoenix has a specific academic consultancy panel which has been head hunted to form part of our team
Our Team
We have grown since our formation in 2018 become one of Irelands leading firms, being a voice for the underdog in litigation against state bodies, institutions, insurance companies or multinational organisations
Our experienced Lawyers have
appeared in a wide range of domestic and international Courts and Tribunals
We have been involved in some of the most high profile and significant legal challenges in recent history, including successfully securing compensation payments for hundreds of survivors of institutional child sexual abuse, legacy inquests, extending protection of trans and religious rights, helping secure same-sex marriage in NI and challenging major developments that threaten to destroy valuable habitats and local communities.
