Emer O’Hora has joined alternative legal services provider Johnson Hana as head of legal and data protection officer.
Ms O’Hora, who will lead the legal solutions team, joins from Newswhip, where she was head of legal and company secretary for four years.
A qualified solicitor who started out in a traditional law firm, she worked as data protection officer at both AIB and Icon plc.

Dan Fox, CEO of Johnson Hana, said: “As the fastest-growing alternative legal services provider in the world, it is important that we have a world-class executive team, not only to facilitate that growth but to ensure we grow without sacrificing the standards which our domestic and international clients have rightly come to expect.
“I am confident Emer, Riona, and Tom will each play a vital role in ensuring Johnson Hana remains not only the fastest-growing but also the best alternative legal services provider in the world.”
