Neil Manley Solicitors was founded in August 2016, by Neil Manley, a dual qualified solicitor in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
What started out as a personal injury litigation firm has modernised and developed into a unique general legal practice, catering for my clients everyday personal and business needs.
I pride myself in providing clients with the personal legal services they require, in what can be very often challenging circumstances.
As the law constantly evolves, so to does my practice. Keeping up to date with latest legal trends and developments, is paramount in providing my clients with relevant, up-to-date and accurate legal advice.
At my firm, it is my aim to provide each and everyone of my clients with a personal service, to ensure that they feel they are in safe hands and most importantly that they feel they are being supported not just by a solicitor but by a friend.
It is my duty, to provide quality legal advice allied with affordable legal costs.
Should you instruct my firm, I have no doubt you will not be disappointed with your decision.
Wills & Probate
An untimely death in a family can cause all sorts of practical problems for those loved ones left behind.
Rather than leaving things to chance, why don’t you consider making firm plans for your estate upon death, making sure your loved ones are taken care of, avoiding unnecessary family disputes and above all making sound tax and inheritance decisions which will protect your estate in the event the unexpected does occur.
Business Advice & Representation
The world of business moves at an extraordinary pace that’s why at Neil Manley Solicitors we realise that our client’s require a legal practice that can provide them with up to the minute legal advice in respect of whatever issue may arise.
Business, much like life, can be unpredictable. Just when we think we have it cracked, along comes a problem that was not planned or legislated for…what then?
Well, let Neil Manley Solicitors be your first port of call.
Business Sales, Mergers & Aquisitions
Sometimes an opportunity comes along in business that is too good not to warrant consideration.
For anyone with serious ambitions in business, the prospects of selling your own business, merging with a like minded business or perhaps looking to expand the business by buying out a competitor can at times be hard to resist.
Should an opportunity come along in business to either buy, sell or merge, be sure to speak to a legal practice who understands your business, a firm you can trust to handle your affairs in secure and confidential manner and above else who you can rely on to conduct negotiations safe in the knowledge that your personal and financial interests are at the centre of their thought process.
Commercial Property
Every business needs a home.
Whether it be leasing a premises or making a full commitment to purchasing premises, choosing the right property structure for your business can be one of the most important decisions you will make in your business life.
My firm is vastly experienced in dealing with a full range of commercial property issues such as leasing agreements, restrictions and regulatory compliance issues.
Cyber Crime
Computers, information technology and social media are continuing to develop at an alarming pace, so much so, that it is growing increasingly difficult to keep pace with the latest trends as well as the latest laws governing such trends.
Since the advent of the internet, we’ve moved from a generation of ‘bookworms’ to a ‘cloud-based’ society, with no telling when and where it will lead to next.
With advancement in computer technology and the increased demand and exposure of social media, it is an important era for Irish businesses to educate themselves and of more importance, to protect themselves in a ‘cyber’ dominated world.
Data Protection
With the advancements in modern technology, the increase in data related theft and the updated data protection principles both at a national and European level, there has never been a more important time in Irish business to be aware of and indeed to adhere to good data protection principles.
Data has become the new currency, with businesses storing vast amounts of personal and private data on hardcopy files, remote servers and cloud based systems. But just how safely is your business storing, processing and using client data?
Debt Recovery
For any commercial client, cash flow and an effective control of credit are the key features of any successful business.
Never has there been a more important time for Irish businesses to stay on top of bad debts, to minimise and reduce exposure to defaulting customers and of course to recover debts in an efficient and cost effective manner.
Defamation & Libel
Communication and the modes of communication have become a key element of modern life, but how far do you really have to push it before you cross the line between freedom of speech and political correctness gone mad?
With modern interfaces such as Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, to name but a few, there has never been a better time for people to communicate their thoughts, feelings and actions to a global audience.
However, whilst freedom of speech is to be applauded, there are times when individuals and corporate entities cross that boundary and expose themselves to costly litigation.
At Neil Manley solicitors, we are on-hand to keep you and your business on the right side of defamation and libel laws and to protect you and your business when that line is crossed.
Dispute Resolution
In business, disputes and disagreements are part and parcel of the ‘day-to-day’ running of any commercial entity.
Naturally, business breeds a competitive instinct, the need to ‘out-perform’ a rival by any means necessary can sometimes tip the balance from being a healthy aspect of business life to a rather toxic situation.
Before your business disputes boils over, take professional advice from a solicitor with first hand experience in mediating in what can often be hostile and very often challenging circumstances.
Employment & HR Advice
As with many aspects in business life, a business is only as good as the team behind it.
Teamwork and how individuals interact are the core ingredients to the productivity, output and above all the success of your business.
By instructing an experienced legal firm to provide one-on-one support in making sure your business is adhering to the latest employment and human resource protocols, you are taking the first step in building a happy and productive work force.
