Linklaters has seen the biggest increase in lawyers admitted to the Irish roll in 2019 in what was a record year for Brexit-tied admissions, as U.K. firms step up efforts to counteract possible disruption to their global standing.
The data, produced by The Law Society of Ireland, shows that, as of December 2019, a total of 1,893 solicitors have gained admission to the Irish roll. At the end of 2018, the figure stood at well below half that at 737.
Linklaters made the greatest jump with 259 solicitors joining the roll since 2016, bringing it to second place on this year's table.
