Edit ProfileEducation
Jane FitzGerald studied at University College Dublin. The institution traces its origins to the Catholic University of Ireland, which opened on 3 November 1854 with John Henry Newman as its first rector. In 1880 the Catholic University was re-formed as University College, Dublin, in order to take advantage of the Royal University of Ireland arrangement, and it received its own charter in 1908.
Her documented professional qualification dates from 1988, when she was admitted to the bar in Ireland. The Law Society of Ireland, established in Dublin in 1830, is responsible under the Solicitors Acts for the education, admission and regulation of solicitors, a framework within which Irish legal practice was organized during her career.
Career
Jane FitzGerald practised law in Ireland as a partner in a solicitors' firm. Her documented professional entry point is 1988, when she was admitted to the bar in Ireland.
Irish solicitors are admitted to the Roll of Solicitors, and the Law Society of Ireland, which was established in Dublin on 24 June 1830, exercises statutory functions relating to the education, admission, enrolment, discipline and regulation of the profession. Partnership in such a firm placed her within the professional structure that these bodies administer.
