“My first seat was in the Dispute Resolution team and I really enjoyed the broad range of disputes that the team undertakes, so it’s fantastic to join the team on a permanent basis.
“I’ve had great support from the senior Partners within the team and I’m looking forward to working alongside them and developing my expertise.”
Susan Howe, Partner and Head of Dispute Resolution, said: “It’s a pleasure to have Kieran on board and we’re delighted to welcome him to our team. Kieran has had experience working across multiple departments within the firm that has enabled him to build a strong skillset. I am sure he will be a fantastic asset for both the dispute resolution team and our clients.”
