Who Am I?

I am a human rights advocate; legal do-gooder if you will, and have completed Masters Degree studies in the fields of International Tax Law, Copyright Law, Corporate Governance, White Collar Crime, International Commercial Arbitration, and International Finance Law at UCD Sutherland School of Law. I am also an Honours Bachelor of Law, LL.B. graduate at the Institute of Technology, Carlow (SETU).

I have worked in a variety of fields throught the legal sector. To name but a few: I spent over a year working with asylum seekers where I, quite successfully, brought clients through the International Protection Appeals Tribunal process on behalf of KOD Lyons Solicitors. I have worked with PILA, the Public Interest Law Alliance - a project of FLAC, where I assisted in the facilitation of pro-bono referrals between civil society organisations and pro-bono lawyers. I have worked as a Personal Reader, Researcher and Thesis Editor for a Ph.D. Doctoral student with a severe visual impairment. I have had a soujourn in the field of Funds Law and most recently I have completed a contract with the Irish Medical Council where I provided a split role between Council Governance and Risk & Compliance. I have drafted numerous Equality & Human Rights policies and Standard Operating Procedures also, leading to a more statutorily compliant organisation. 

I chose to study law at Honours level as I grew more and more intrigued by the way the world around me truly worked. As part of my LL.B. Degree, I completed studies in Constitutional Law, Criminal Law, The Irish Legal System, Legal Research & Communications, Legal Practice & Procedure, Tort Law, Employment Law, Media Law & the Digital Environment, Contract law, Evidence, Equity & Trusts Law, Consumer Protection and Personal Insolvency Law, European Union Law, Company Law, and Land Law & Succession. I have also completed additional studies in the fields of Jurisprudence and Administrative Law.

I began this initiative as way of filling the hours during the initial Covid-19 lockdown and before long I became immersed in the process. I hope you can derive some benefit from the information on this site and I wish you the very best of health and happiness. 

Is mise le meas agus míle buíochas,

Daithí
