Jack Quigley

About My Work

I am Jack Quigley, I have been working in the legal profession in Derry, Belfast and Dublin since 2004 and I decided in July 2023 - having obtained invaluable experience over almost two decades in the profession - that the time was ripe to open my own firm. This was an ambition of mine since my early 20s and I am determined to fulfil it in the interests of both my family and my clients. Opening my own firm has been rewarding and challenging at the same time but it is something that I am proud to work hard to sustain.
