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 right to erasure response pack in Ireland helps organisations respond correctly to requests to delete personal data. It is professionally drafted and Ireland-specific, aligned to the Data Protection Act 2018 and the EU GDPR, and suitable for SMEs, data protection leads, HR managers and small business owners, without open-ended hourly billing. This service is not a substitute for a full Data Protection Officer appointment in regulated sectors; for complex investigations or high-risk processing, contact us for a tailored quote.
The price shown is the full professional fee for the service as described, and any third-party or State fees are listed separately where they apply. If your matter needs more than this service covers, a solicitor would explain the options before any further work is done.
