We use Philip Egan in Thurles (we live in Co. Tipp) for the last five years. He has seen us through three real estate transactions, and answered various questions about taxes, immigration, trusts, and banking. He is a one-person office in a rural area of the Country but has served us well. He can't offer the same services as a large office but for us, the personal service makes a difference. If you decide to use him, feel free to use our names - Peter and Sara Hance. His number from the USA is 011-353-504-90473. As a former attorney myself and an instructor at one law school (Yale), I have found that the differences between the law practices from the US to Ireland are fairly noticeable. There is no excuse for not returning calls but the practice is not quite as "grand" as it is in the US - and the fees reflect that level of service. As it is with most things in Europe, life is more laid-back and that is seen in services as well. Keep trying. There are good folks out there.

We have now been in Ireland for about a month and are in the limbo period for my husband to start working. He is a spouse of an EU citizen and therefore has the right to work in Ireland. The legal WAy is that he would have a temporary work permit to bridge the gap for his residence card, which he is technically not supposed to apply for until he has been in Ireland for 6 months. Below has been our experience with our local immugration officer. 1. EU Spouse Immigration – We met with the local immigration officer at the Guarda station our second week here so ...

... Having strong ties in both countries has made Settling in one place hard for us. Just to touch on some of your points: re #1: I agree. CA is so expensive, and even though pay is far lower in Ireland, I always felt better off living in Ireland than in CA. There just seems to be higher bills, and more of them. Sounds like you don't have kids yet, but when you do, medical costs can rocket, which makes life even harder. Even with a good medical insurance plan, out-of-pocket costs are too high! re #2: I've seen discussions on this topic on other sites, and t ...

... which is one of the most expensive places to live in terms of rent/property costs, taxes etc. Basically everything costs more. We think that by moving to Ireland costs there will be comparable if not cheaper when we take into account changes to income which are likely to occur. 2. We are both 29 years old and are thinking long term, namely children. We would like to live near family; so it boils down to Ireland or the bay area. Honestly, as an irish person with LOTS of family (ahem 52 first cousins) family is a big deal. 3. Better work/life balance. In amer ...

... to provide us a contract and quote within 24 hours of our conversation, neither of which ever came. We never heard from him again. We could have contacted the company again, but decided against it. The amount we WAnted to ship WAs miniscule and WAs not worth the hassle, so we ended up just checking extra baggage on our flight. We also shipped some packages through USPS in their international flat rate boxes, which we will never do again!! The boxes came and were practically falling apart. The Irish post had retaped them to keep the contents from falling ou ...

Hello Liam and everyone, My situation is a little tricky and I WAs hoping for some help if possible! My husband and I currently live in New York, and his company might have him move to Ireland for 6 months to work in their Ireland office. His company is Setting him/us up in housing that we won't have to pay for, so we would potentially still be paying rent on the lease of our Apartment back in New York to keep it. I am currently self-employed doing remote work (and may be doing full-time remote work for a New York-based company in the next month or so). I ...

So, I submitted all three reports that indicated that I had no criminal history or outstanding WArrants, etc. with the Stamp 0 documents.

I bought health insurance before I moved to Ireland as ...
