Arthur Cox has announced the appointment of Darragh Geraghty as head of its New York office and Conor McCarthy as head of its London office.

Mr Geraghty, a partner in the firm’s finance group, takes over the New York office from Phil Cody, who has served in the role since 2017.

Mr McCarthy, a corporate and M&A partner, succeeds David Molloy, who has returned to Dublin and will continue practising in the firm’s finance group.

Geoff Moore, managing partner at Arthur Cox, said: “As a leading law firm in the global open economy, much of our work is international. Our New York and London offices are of central importance to our clients, more and more of whom have international requirements.

“Both Darragh and Conor are leading practitioners in their respective fields, having advised on some of the most innovative Irish and cross-border deals in the market. Their appointments will further strengthen our international capabilities and offering to clients.”

John Matson, head of international, added: “Darragh and Conor’s appointments will build on the excellent work of their predecessors, enabling us to work closely and collaboratively with our clients who have an international focus, delivering first-class client service wherever they are based.”

As well as its head office in Dublin and the offices in New York and London, Arthur Cox also has offices in Belfast and in San Francisco.
