The firm
Robert Emmet Bourke & Co. practises from No. 29 Fitzwilliam Street Upper, Dublin 2. The firm was founded by Robert Bourke, a former barrister, and in 2026 amalgamated with Philip Kelly & Co., bringing together a litigation practice and a property practice with more than eighty years of conveyancing experience between them.
We are deliberately small. Every matter is handled by a solicitor with direct responsibility for it, and clients deal with the person doing the work rather than a department. Where a matter calls for senior counsel, forensic accountants or tax advisers, we bring them in and manage them.
