Headline

Herbert Smith to open Belfast office to handle litigation due diligence

Comment

I think this thread has gone off the point. I'm sure there are many good lawyers in Ireland. The problem is HS is looking to save money so the jobs created in Ireland will be the factory jobs of the legal world. There are plenty of desperate lawyers and paralegals so HS probably knows it will have no problem attracting people to fill these factory jobs. I think this move is insulting to Irish lawyers because it is essentially saying we'll use the Irish as cheap labour and keep the best jobs in London.
