Friarylaw New York Bar has a long and established history of training the top candidates in both the New York Bar and Californian International Programmes. Friarylaw has trained over 95% of all successful Irish candidates of the American Bar Programme since Oliver Connolly set-up Friarylaw and introduced the programmes to Ireland in 2000.
After 10 years of training Attorneys, we now feel it is time to assist our current highly qualified candidates and our previous Alumni with the next step on their path to prosperity.

The international market for top qualified New York Bar Attorneys remains strong. We have in the past, assisted in placing candidates in some of the top firms and corporations in New York, London, Luxembourg, Paris, Madrid, Geneva, Hong Kong and Sydney to name but a few.

New York is the traditional route for qualified Attorneys, however it is not the only route.
