Of the 67 new jobs, 43 will be created in Northern Ireland as a result of role transfers from its US and European offices. The remaining 24 posts will be created as a result of projected natural growth at its Belfast office over the next three years.
Announcing the investment the Minister said: "This investment, which will create up to 67 new positions, is welcome and positive news for our economy and the legal services sector.

The fact that this international firm plans to expand so soon after its initial investment clearly indicates that Northern Ireland has more than delivered in terms of skills, cost competitiveness and infrastructure."
