Pearse Mehigan & Co. Solicitors

What Pearse Mehigan & Co. Solicitors does

Pearse Mehigan Solicitors LLP is a Dublin-based, founder-owned Irish law firm founded in 1982 by Pearse Mehigan, operating from a single headquarters in Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin. The firm employs approximately 9 staff, including four solicitors, legal executives, support staff, and a practice manager, and offers a broad suite of legal services across nine practice areas: Abuse Law, Accidents/Personal Injury, Dispute Resolution & Mediation, Employment Law, Family Law, Litigation, Property Law/Conveyancing, Sports Law, and Wills & Probate. Its primary client base comprises private individuals and families in the greater Dublin metropolitan area and nationwide Ireland, alongside corporate clients, insurance companies, and financial institutions; the firm has also represented abuse law claimants in the UK, US, and Australia.

The firm is positioned as a specialist in plaintiff litigation, particularly abuse law (institutional, clerical, childhood, and family abuse) and medical negligence including birth injuries, brain damage, and spinal injuries. The Principal, Pearse Mehigan, is a CEDR-accredited mediator, and the firm handles proceedings before the Injuries Board, Workplace Relations Commission, Family Law Courts, and Commercial Court. There are nine discrete service lines rather than a single product, no proprietary technology platform, and no disclosed AI/ML or API capabilities; service delivery is in-person and remote via phone, email, and a website callback feature.

The business model is traditional professional services: revenue is generated through fees billed for legal work, with no public pricing or subscription terms. Go-to-market relies on referrals, direct contact, professional networks, and a content-led website (including articles such as the April 2025 personal injury piece). The firm is privately held under an LLP structure with no outside investors, and it has historically grown through acquisitions of other solicitor practices and internal development of solicitors from trainee to partner level.
