Alumni Gatherings

Over the last number of years the school and its graduates have been meeting informally in Dublin at six month intervals. Matheson Solicitors very kindly hosted the first gathering and the second was held in the Stephen’s Green Hibernian Club. Most recently Eversheds generously hosted the group and we now await an invitation from the Law Library alumni.

These Alumni gatherings have been organised by Sinead Eaton and the last one took place in the Stephens Green Hibernian Club. It revolved around an excellent talk on technology and the law by Barrister, Mr Gerard Groarke and was attended by 40 alumni and the Chancellor and former Chief Justice, The Hon Mr Justice John Murray. 

Alumni Mentoring

Many of the Law Alumni are very happy to help current Law students at UL, to help them prepare for interviews and inform them about opportunities and firms. The school is very fortunate to have such wonderful graduates and Sinead often links LLM Commercial students or final year Law students with junior barristers, trainee solicitors, or those pursuing other careers.

The Alumni can mentor and advise current students by phone or email and this helps the students enormously on their journeys. This is best suited to 3rd and 4th year students; email Sinead Eaton at sinead.eaton@ul.ie for more details.
