We do things a little differently at Solicitors’ Growth, taking more of a holistic approach to our roles as solicitors. We want you to GROW and improve not just your professional life but every aspect of your life.
Our work is such a big part of our lives, but it is important that it does not take over our lives. We should be working to support our lives, not the other way around. At Solicitors’ Growth, we encourage you to work smarter not harder, making a living doing something you love while building a life you love.
We are hands on and community focussed. We don’t want this to be just another conference, we want this to be THE ONLY conference you need to be at. This two day event will be a combination of information, inspiration, connection and fun.
Following the publication of his bestselling first book ‘Mind Full: Unwreck Your Head, Destress Your Life’, radio and TV presenter, author, comedian, public speaker and, more recently, qualified mediation teacher and expert, Dermot Whelan, joins us to discuss how to de-stress in a fun and accessible way.
Karl Henry is one of Ireland’s most recognised and leading personal trainers and is the name that is synonymous with health and training in Ireland. Karl will be talking to us about what lifestyle changes we can make to help us lead our best lives, in the best possible health.
Jen Martin is an accredited Psychological Coach, Speaker and Change Facilitator. Jen specialises in Vulnerability and Psychological Wellbeing, and will be discussing how we as solicitors can best manage our mental health in order to enhance our performance and overall wellbeing.
Solicitor, author, speaker, entrepreneur and business owner, Teresa Payne wears many hats, and will be joinging us to discuss ‘how to fall in love with your profession again’. Having come late to the legal profession following earlier careers in hospitality and travel, Teresa and her business partner Nigel Harper now operate a network of very successful high street law firms across the South East of England.
Chartered Accountant, Managing Director, Management Consultant and CEO are just a few of the titles Nigel Harper holds. Nigel brings years of business and financial expertise to the table along with many years of experience in law firm management. Nigel, along with Teresa, will be sharing with us their wealth of knowledge in defining and implementing business growth strategies for the legal services sector.
Tadhg Dorgan studied law at UCC before entering Kings Inns. He is a civil law practitioner, with particular emphasis on Medical Negligence and Personal Injury litigation. He is co-author of the award winning publication ‘Damages’, by Dorgan and Mc Kenna which is in its 2nd Edition and brings specialist expertise to our breakout panels.

We, Flor McCarthy and Martin Lawlor, founded Solicitors’ Growth at the beginning of 2021.
In the year previous, where Live in-person gatherings were not possible, we decided to host and provide online CPD training for our fellow solicitors. It soon became apparent that these regular sessions were about much more than just CPD. They were about community.
Through our many conversations with colleagues, it became clear that the peer to peer contact and conversations that were happening on the webinars needed a bigger platform. One that was accessible every day of the week. That is why we set about creating Solicitors’ Growth, a supportive and informative community with the aim of bringing together solicitors facing the same challenges of private practice and helping them to learn the tools and strategies they need to work smarter so that they can create a life and career they truly want.
And now with our first chance to get together physically, what better way to celebrate this amazing community than with a spectacular get together that encompasses all of the best things about Solicitors’ Growth – great content and true collegiality.
Please join us at this great event, we look forward to meeting you there.
