International law firm Hogan Lovells has appointed Eoin O’Connor as a partner in its global regulatory practice, and as managing partner in its Dublin office.
The firm says that he will work closely with competition partner Christopher Hutton to build the firm’s presence in Dublin.
O’Connor joins Hogan Lovells from Walkers, where he served as head of the firm’s regulatory practice for Ireland. He had previously trained and practised as a solicitor in Arthur Cox.
O’Connor advises financial institutions on a range of issues – including compliance with industry guidance, legislation, and codes issued by the Central Bank – and has acted for many domestic and international firms.
His appointment follows the firm’s launch of a Dublin office in March this year.
