Philip Lee LLP is one of Ireland’s leading corporate and commercial law firms. Our Dublin head office is enhanced by offices in London and San Francisco. We have built a team that can advise you on every aspect of your business, both in Ireland and internationally. We are recognised leaders in several areas of legal practice, including construction, PPP, procurement, energy, environmental, real estate, planning, corporate and M&A, media and entertainment, digital assets and blockchain, competition, data, EU, intellectual property, IT, employment and immigration. Our first-class lawyers support businesses across all of these sectors and beyond, providing a comprehensive service to address all of their legal requirements in every specialist area.
Many of the firm’s clients are pioneering private companies operating in many different sectors, most notably aviation, banking, construction, energy, FDI, finance, food, healthcare, life sciences, media, motoring, pharmaceutical, sport and technology. We are also proud to act for public sector bodies that have real vision. Each one of our clients has chosen us knowing that we are the firm that will treat their challenges as our own until they are resolved.
Working with us means you can quickly access a global network. Philip Lee is the sole Irish member of Multilaw, a consortium network of over 11,000 lawyers in 100 countries worldwide and ranked by Chambers Global as an ‘Elite’ international network of law firms. Through our active working relationships with many firms in that network our clients have direct access to an impressive breadth of legal, policy and business resources.
Choosing the right law firm is not just a logical decision based on facts and figures. You need to feel the confidence that comes from working with lawyers with outstanding judgement and leadership, who are unafraid of a challenge and who think creatively. You need to feel the connection that comes from working with people who are enthusiastic and who really understand your business, and you need to feel the comfort that comes with being listened to carefully and advised in the most efficient way possible.
