About

A highly experienced general counsel, David Boyle supplements his professional expertise with journalistic efforts; he has been an editor with The Irish Law Times journal since the year 2000 and thus provides the benefit of his immense corporate legal knowledge to the profession as a whole. Boyle’s in-house legal career began in in 2006 with Canada Life, and his time with the company was an extremely successful one. Boyle rose through the ranks to the position of general counsel for Ireland over the course of seven years until, in 2013, he took on his current role as general counsel of Irish Life. His move coincided with Irish Life being sold by the Irish government to the Life Group, and Boyle has had a significant impact on the streamlining and amalgamating of the processes of Canada Life and Irish life during the course of the merger.
