Wexford Town Native Dylan Redmond SC Called To The Inner Bar

Wexford Town native Dylan Redmond has been appointed Senior Counsel, one of the highest professional distinctions at The Bar of Ireland. He was formally called to the Inner Bar at a ceremony in the Four Courts recently. He has been practicing on the Southeastern Circuit since 2005. He was County prosecutor for County Carlow between 2018-2021 and County Kilkenny between 2021-2026.

The appointment marks his transition from Junior Counsel to Senior Counsel, commonly known as “taking silk”. It is a significant professional distinction recognising barristers whose standing, experience and expertise equip them to undertake work of particular complexity and importance.

Chair of the Council of The Bar of Ireland, Séamus Clarke SC, said: “I warmly congratulate Dylan on this significant achievement. His appointment reflects the expertise, judgement and professional integrity required of Senior Counsel. It is a proud moment for him, and I wish him every success in this next chapter of his career.”

Dylan is one of 17 barristers called to the Inner Bar this year, seven of whom are women. Following today’s ceremony, The Bar of Ireland has 2,084 members, including 380 Senior Counsel.
