About Sheil Solicitors

Sheil Solicitors LLP, established in 1906, have developed a loyal client base, serving the needs of our historical base of rural and farming clients, both private and commercial which has helped develop an expertise in property and business law, a significant element of the practice, to include commercial mediation (CEDR approved).

Many years experience in representing the interests of the corporate sector, as the practice developed to meet the changing needs of clients, have brought Sheil Solicitors LLP to the position it holds today as one of the most enduring general practices in Dublin City. It has the necessary expertise to advise both the commercial and the private client. In March 2008, after over 100 years of practice on the Quays, we relocated to purpose built offices at 34 Lad Lane, Dublin 2.

Sheil Solicitors LLP was recently included in The Sunday Independent’s List of Ireland’s Best Law Firms 2023.
