Pearts Solicitor Socials: Cocktails & Crucial Conversations – 16th September 2026

REGISTER HERE TODAY for an enlightening, and intimate evening of complimentary cocktails, canapes and conversations with expert speakers, while also earning 1 FREE Hour of Professional Development and Solicitor Wellbeing CPD!

*LIMITED PLACES AVAILABLE*

In collaboration with Bureau Offices, The July Dublin, Poachers Drinks, iStill 38 and supported by the Irish Women Lawyers Association we are very excited to host our first (of many, we hope) Pearts Solicitor Socials.

Our expert panel of speakers, hosted by Niamh Wade Solicitor will focus on important topics surrounding women’s health, hormones, fertility journeys, loss, burnout, mental health and much more, with guidance and helpful tips on how to navigate working through these tough times, or how to assist employees trying to juggle it all.

This in-person event offers a fantastic opportunity to connect, unwind, and engage with fellow professionals in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. From the drinks to the foodie delights to the discussions, we hope it will be a memorable evening, with all attendees in with a chance to win a midweek stay in the amazing Wineport Lodge and other spot prizes on the night. Whatever your motivation for coming, we hope you will enjoy our inaugural Pearts Solicitor Socials. Please note, this is not a ‘lawyer only’ event. All are welcome, and we would especially like to see some men educating themselves too. We look forward to seeing you there! Please contact nwade@pearts.ie with any questions you may have.

The Race Was On!

Team Pearts took to the backstreets of D7 and the Phoenix Park along with over a thousand other legal professionals for the annual Law Society of Ireland Calcutta Run last Saturday.

From beaming sunshine, to beats, to BBQ it was a day filled with colour, positive energy and a lot of red faces!!! Well done to all of the organisers and everyone who participated in it in one form or another, and especially to our very own Ion who beat Sonia O’Sullivan’s time in the 10K run!

Here’s hoping all the fundraising, yet again exceeds all expectations for the well-deserving charities, namely the Dublin Simon Community and The HOPE Foundation. Keep reading →
