US law firm Vinson & Elkins has opened an office in Dublin and has plans to grow its footprint here, having been attracted by Ireland’s clout in the aviation sector.
It is understood there are just three lawyers in the Dublin office at this point but that the group intends to grow this number. Ireland is a big player in the global aircraft leasing market. Dublin-headquartered AerCap is the global leader in aviation leasing with about 300 customers worldwide. Alongside Dublin, it has offices in Shannon, Miami, Singapore, Amsterdam, Shanghai, Dubai, Seattle, Toulouse, and other locations around the world.‘Our elderly mum requires full-time care at home.
