Error at Galway city law firm came to light last year

Solicitors in legal dispute to get back €100,000 paid in error to estate of deceased client

An Irish firm of solicitors mistakenly transferred close to €100,000 to the estate of a deceased American client and has been unable to get the money back.

The error at Berwick Solicitors LLP happened in September 2021 but only came to light in January last year during an audit by the Law Society.
