Jason O’Sullivan is the principal and founder of J.O.S Solicitors said “Last year it was reported that nearly 2,000 claims were made against the council over a period of two and a half years.”While it was reported in 2018 that the council was owed over €75m in unpaid rents, loans and commercial rates.”Therefore the level of legal fees – of €1.5m spent in 2019 – doesn’t appear overly unreasonable”.
