FRKelly

FRKelly is one of the leading IP firms in Ireland. EU trade mark attorney Gavan Ferguson serves as managing partner. The firm has experienced trade mark and patent attorneys for European and Irish IP protection and portfolio management. The experienced European patent attorneys in the firm include David Brophy, Donal Kelly and Paul Keane. 

On trade mark matters, Ferguson is supported by senior practitioners such as Mary Bleahene and Carol Gormley. The firm can also advise on IP disputes thanks to Shane Smyth, a qualified solicitor and patent/trade mark attorney who can advise on disputes and transactional matters. Kelly also understands IP litigation. 

IP Star Niamh Hall passed away in November 2022. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Niamh Hall. Veteran trade mark attorney Brenda O’Regan has retired. In 2023, the firm strengthened its trade mark practice by hiring trade mark attorney Judy McCullagh as a partner.
