About

Evelyn O’Donnell, director of legal at Davy Private Clients continues to impress in her leadership of the legal team at Davy which was included in the GC Powerlist: Ireland Teams 2018. Trained at McCann FitzGerald, she spent a number of years working in the commercial litigation department post qualification. From McCann FitzGerald, she moved to A&L Goodbody in 2016 where she spent almost two years working in the dispute resolution department before moving to her current position in Davy. O’Donnell identifies that she runs the team with a motto of “Client first, one team, always growing”. She highlights that, ‘as the Davy business continues to grow, the legal function has become an integral part of the Davy business and I credit much of the team’s success with the highly collegiate and close working environment that the function has developed, along with the well-developed analytical and well-rounded skills that the legal team possesses’.
