    Do you have access to www.justis.com or some other legal search database? If so, you should be able to search by firm name and see what reported decisions that have had.

    If you have access to Westlaw do a text search of Irish cases with the firm's name and that should turn up a few.

    If not OP, they offer a 2 week free trial. It's use is restricted, but you can still search through the caselaw...
