Compo.

Nah. It's grand, but it wouldn't be top tier. Like family law or conveyancing, it's bread and butter work.

Aircraft leasing is a good one. Commercial stuff generally is good, banking (but only high end, everyday banking stuff is just grunt work- lots and lots of paperwork).

Tribunals and judicial reviews are good too.

Criminal work isn't bad, but unless you are doing a lot of it, the time you have to spend in Court waiting for cases to come up is a waste of billable hours. That's why people tend to do a lot of it, or none of it. You also need to be on call out of hours as people do tend to get arrested at night/weekends and you need to be available to give advice at a garda station, attend for arraignments etc.

Thanks
Ya I can imagine commercial law is fairly handy for money

Aircraft leasing is an interesting one

I thought constitutional law would be quite lucrative as well?

Matlock here's a question.

I'd be around the Four Courts area a good bit, and I always see people walking around carrying massive boxes full of files, big folders etc.

Often these are being carried by sexy young female legal eagles who obviously wouldn't be able to defend themselves in the incident of an attack.

Surely data privacy is a major risk when these people are walking around such a shit part of Dublin with all these files, like sitting ducks.

Is there a reason its all done in paper? You'd think an encrypted laptop would be better.

Stealing from your client account is apparently the best way to make wallet. And often ends up with you getting a great tan.

It is, but there's very little of it around.

The courts are moving more towards soft copies, but the system is still very paper heavy.

All that paperwork doesn't really have a monetary value so no scobe is really interested in stealing it. Far more interested in the content of your handbag than your banker boxes! My suit jacket was stolen in the round hall of the four courts years ago though. Fuck sake like...

I had to get my SC to apologise to the Court for appearing with no jacket. The lovely Judge Ryan peered down at the 2 barristers and said "can you gentlemen not settle this matter, and let the poor woman go home..."
