Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan Solicitors

What Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan Solicitors does

Poe Kiely Hogan Lanigan Solicitors LLP is an Irish full-service law firm headquartered in Kilkenny, founded in 1926 and operating as a limited liability partnership. The firm employs between 11 and 50 staff, comprising 11 partners and consultants alongside solicitors, senior associates, and legal executives. Its second office in Castlecomer was added on 1 October 2024 through a merger with Holland Condon Solicitors, which brought John D. Holland and Michael Condon into the firm as consultants.

The firm offers more than fifteen practice areas spanning property and conveyancing, family law, surrogacy and pathways to parenthood, immigration (including international protection), medical negligence, criminal defence, employment, commercial and corporate law, renewable energy and windfarms, civil proceedings and dispute resolution, insolvency and restructuring, health/safety/regulatory, agriculture, personal injury, wills and succession, road traffic offences, and assisted decision making. It positions itself as the leading general-practice firm in the South East of Ireland while serving national clients in three specialist areas — surrogacy, medical negligence, and renewable energy/windfarming — where partner Annette Hickey is a recognised authority and the firm publishes the sixth edition of "Surrogacy: A Route To Parenthood In Ireland."

Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service, matter-by-matter basis with quote-based pricing; initial consultations and certain specialist guides are provided free of charge to drive inbound enquiries. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and traditional: client referrals, professional reputation, a content-rich website with appointment booking, and earned media (partners appearing on RTÉ Prime Time and Claire Byrne Today Show). Customer segments are individual consumers and small-to-medium regional businesses, with the Renewable Energy practice addressing a specialist national developer/operator client base. There is no proprietary technology platform, no app, and no disclosed AI/ML capability; service delivery is office-led in Kilkenny and Castlecomer.
