 Leeds Legal in Ireland

 Representatives from Leeds Legal have taken part in a two-day exploratory visit to Dublin, including a meeting with the British Ambassador for the Republic of Ireland, to investigate potential business opportunities for the region’s lawyers.
Leeds delegates had several meetings with key Dublin-based businesses and organisations responsible for facilitating trade. These included The Law Society of Ireland; Institute of Chartered Accountants; UK Trade & Investment (UKTI); the Irish Taxation Institute; and the Irish Business and Employers Confederation.
Mr Baker said: “Dublin has been one of the European business cities whose potential we have been keen to investigate for a good while. Over the last couple of days we have identified many possible opportunities for Leeds lawyers and the wider business community.”
