Guide only — this matter needs a solicitor. Under Irish law this work must be carried out by a solicitor, so it is not sold on this site. The information below explains what is involved so you can brief a solicitor with confidence.
OnlineLegalServices.ie is operated by Plus Promotions Limited, which is not a solicitor’s practice and does not give legal advice. To instruct a regulated practice, use the Law Society of Ireland’s Find a Solicitor directory.
A quarterly legal health check in Ireland is a structured review of a company’s key legal documents and compliance. This Quarterly Legal Health Check is solicitor-handled and Ireland-specific, aligned to the Companies Act 2014 and EU commercial law, and tailored to your commercial situation. It is suitable for SMEs, start-ups, founders and in-house teams who want legal issues spotted early, without open-ended hourly billing. This service is not a substitute for full legal representation in contested commercial litigation; for complex M&A or high-value disputes, contact us for a tailored quote.

What does a legal health check look at?
It typically covers company records and CRO filings, key contracts, employment documents, data protection and other risk areas relevant to your business.
Why do a legal health check regularly?
Regular checks help catch issues, such as missed filings or outdated contracts, before they become costly problems.
