02 — The Firm

Senior counsel.
No handoffs.

Most firms sell you a partner and hand you an associate. We don't. The solicitor who takes your first call is the one who argues your case — from first letter to final judgment.

We take fewer matters, on purpose. It means every client gets the full attention of a senior practitioner.

  • → Partners handle every stage personally — no delegation to trainees
  • → Plain-English advice, in writing, after every meeting
  • → Fixed-fee options for standard matters — no open-ended billing
  • → Bilingual service in English and Irish
  • → Direct line to your solicitor — not a reception queue
03 — How We Work

Four steps.
No mystery.

You'll know exactly where your case stands, what it costs, and what happens next — from the moment you contact us.

01

Free first call

A 20-minute consultation at no cost. We listen, assess, and tell you honestly whether you have a case worth pursuing.

02

Written strategy

You receive a written plan: the likely path, timeline, cost, and the specific solicitor handling your matter.

03

We act

Negotiation, correspondence, or court proceedings. You're updated at every material step — in plain English.

04

Resolution

Settlement, judgment, or a strategic exit. We close the file cleanly and tell you what to watch for in future.

04 — Results

What clients say after.

We don't publish every case. These are real matters, anonymised where required, shared with permission.

Commercial

Kearns & Vale took a €1.2M contract dispute other firms called "unwinnable" and settled it in our favour within nine months.
