Linklaters registers with CRO with view on Dublin

Global law firm Linklaters registered a business with the CRO in Dublin last month with a view to opening an office in the capital.

This would make Linklaters the first of the so-called London ‘magic circle’ top-five firms to open in Ireland.

It is already listed as a firm with the Law Society.

The world’s largest firm, Dentons, opened in Dublin early last year.

Players

Global players DLA Piper, Pinsent Masons, Dechert,  Fieldfisher and Tully Rinckey already have a presence in the capital while Allen and Overy has a strong presence in Belfast.

The Law Society clarified late last year than an Irish practising cert entitles a solicitor to practice only in Ireland, and from an establishment in Ireland.
