Zoya Kherani

AUDITOR

Born in India, raised in Dubai, and now fully converted to saying “like,” “grand,” and “shite” in every second sentence, Zoya is in her final year of Law and Business, and what better way to mark the occasion than by becoming Auditor of the 92nd Session of the Law Society? Since her very first Freshers’ Fair, Zoya has somehow averaged three committee positions per year, despite loudly declaring each time: “I’m never doing this again”. And yet… here we are, now in her final (and allegedly last ever). She’s been everything from FLAC Secretary to Colloquium Chair, but after serving 2 years on committee, LawSoc has always been her favourite (so she says) No one’s entirely sure how she pulled it off, some suspect caffeine, others suspect her indian genetics. Though she’s not technically Irish, Zoya’s love for the Irish language and culture rivals most locals, and she is suspiciously more passionate about getting an Irish passport than anyone born here. Expect big guests, even bigger events, and plenty of LinkedIn posts about it all, because if she doesn’t post about it on LinkedIn, did it even happen? (Spoiler: no.) It’s her final ride, and she’s not holding back.

Lucy-May Roberts

TREASURER

Lucy-May Roberts (or Lucy ‘pay up’ Roberts as her job title would suggest) is not only your new treasurer of LawSoc, but the treasure of our hearts as well. Whilst the only wealth she has accumulated thus far is the plastic tiara from winning ‘law queen’ 2025, her reign lives on even as she battles for corporate sponsorships this year (to use for free wine and pizza at events, duh). If you don’t know where to find Lucy May on campus, there’s a high chance that the pink flash and gust of wind that just flew past you was actually Lucy running to catch her bus to Drogheda with three minutes to spare (and she always makes it). With many amazing accolades to add to her CV, she strategically leaves out the only flaw, that she is indeed from Louth. But, (for now) we’ll let that slide, as I’ve heard the bus drivers for Law Ball this year are from up her road, so there won’t be any €200 bills for taxis this time- or so we hope.

 

Chris Kelly

SECRETARY

Mr. Trinity himself, Chris Kelly has taken office as the SECxiest man alive, aka Law Soc’s new secretary!! The ultimate campus celebrity, you might find Chris directing gaggles of American tourists around the Book of Kells (heard they’re renaming it the Book of Kelly??), pumping the iron in the Trinity gym or networking at the pav (legend says he’ll buy you a drink if you add him on LinkedIn). Having gotten his claim to fame last year as 2nd year rep, Chris has decided to grace LawSoc with his presence once again. Armed with a dashing smile, a subscription to the Financial Times and a somewhat alarming addiction to monster, he’ll be utilising the cutthroat skills of a joint honours student (#LawPol) to create the most fabulous line-up the speaker series has ever seen. Don’t miss the chance to see this Raheny man presenting awards to some of the biggest names in the legal world and beyond!!!

Caoimhe Moran

Librarian

Hailing from the farthest reach of the ‘Greater Dublin Area’ (Dunboyne, Meath), we are proud to introduce our Librarian Caoimhe! Although she’s a LawPol student, she doesn’t let that hold her back, defying all odds to beat RON for this highly coveted position. When Caoimhe is not attending the opening of an envelope (seriously ban her Ticketmaster), you can find her banging her Stanley cup around on Usher 3 while carefully curating the greatest piece society correspondence you have ever seen. Stay tuned for the inspiring work of this aspiring Dub in your inbox every week (we promise it’s worth the read).

Emily Oprisan

Public relations officer

Sure! Here is a humourous bio for a student run law-society: Emily almost switched from Law and German to Law and Business, lured in by the promise of a BBL, only to find out it stood for Bachelor of Business and Law. Emily navigates life with her Notion calendar, emotional support waterbottle and her not-so-secret weapon ChatGPT, which she unapologetically uses for absolutely everything. You will probably find Emily chatting in the Lecky whilst simultaneously applying for 5 different jobs at the same time. Despite being born and raised in Dublin, Emily can do an insufferable English accent. Currently on a “social media detox” (whilst simultaneously running the LawSoc Instagram), Emily promises to make LawSoc cool again.

Brenna Byrne

Assistant public relations officer

Brenna Byrne has just come back from a year long Erasmus in Paris, and don’t we know. Averaging 3 insta posts a week and 5 TikToks a day, Brenna sure knows how to document what goes on around her. She is particularly fond of capturing her friends’ worst moments on a night out and haunting us with them for the foreseeable. You have to forgive her though, out of pity if anything; she comes from Newry after all. This coming year when she is not devoting herself to LawSoc, you will find her either in the White Rabbit café or ‘Copper Face Jacks’, there’s no in between.

Rachelle Bailey

Social Secretary

Meet Rachelle, the social secretary AKA LawSoc’s party planner, tasked with organising Swing Ball and Law Ball. We trust that this LawPol student has mastered her class in political sweet-talking so that she can negotiate and finesse some free booze for the functions. Hailing from New Jersey (yes it is different from New York), she is our resident American for the session. If you ever need to reach her, you’ll find her camped out at the intense and intimidating Boland pit, working on a way to permanently assign one of those seats to herself. And if she’s not there, just look for a trenchcoat-clad figure with perfect hair, smoking a Vogue outside the library to keep the stress at bay.

Molly Mullan Haslam

TWIL Officer

Molly is a retired (but emotionally still active) Irish dancer who once placed third in the world…yes, the world…but gracefully hung up the dancing shoes to take on the role of Chair of TWIL, because someone has to fight the patriarchy in heels. Born in England but with deep Irish roots that no one seems to believe, Molly insists she’s Irish at heart especially when someone refers to her as British. She also spent part of her childhood in Minnesota, USA, where she peaked as high school cheer captain and developed a passion for pink, Lululemon, and her emotional support water bottle, which she is never seen without. Currently studying law (after a brief, unfortunate detour into sports biology, which turned out to be 90% fish and 10% bird taxidermy), Molly is now fully committed to becoming a family or criminal barrister and wants it on record that she is firmly anti-corporate law. When not running TWIL or the DUHAC track team as captain, Molly can be found reminding people that she is, in fact, not yet 5ft tall, but has the presence of someone at least 6ft emotionally. Molly brings unmatched energy, charm, and authenticity to TWIL, and whether she is running events or running laps, she does it all with a bright smile and a borderline frightening level of organisation.

Kitty Carolan

Charities officer

Introducing Kitty Carolan this year’s Charities Officer. Known for her vivacious personality and fabulous hair, Kitty will be a fantastic asset in this year’s society. Having spent the summer on her European tour, she surely knows how to command a budget and allocate funding to deserving causes, but most importantly, she’s gained the drinking experience needed to be our Charities Officer. While she claims to be from Navan, her boho-chic aesthetic fits right in on Drury Street (which is probably where you’ll find her when she’s not busy with Law Society antics or on a midweek city break). Get ready to see her on performance at this year’s charity boxing and to attend fundraiser after fundraiser with Kitty as our Charities Officer, because I can assure you, there is no better woman for the job.

Aoife Shine

outreach officer

Eefs is a final year law and french student and is paul mescal’s neighbour! (true story). After spending last year in Paris and CCI land she’s back to reality and back to outreach. You might recognise her by her laugh echoing through the berkeley pit or simply because she’s in her uniform. Aoife is always up to chat or plog whatever you’d prefer and she is NO LONGER looking for an EP ticket (thank god). Overall, she’s a ray of sunshine and the perfect girl for outreach this year.

Ardin Magee

Careers officer

Born and bred in the fine county of Kildare, please welcome this years’ Careers Officer Ardin Magee. Although he may be unemployed, Ardin swears that he will do his utmost to ensure that you are well equipped for whatever career path you may choose (proceed with caution). After a summer spent inter-railing, his Instagram is enough to turn heads and somehow his LinkedIn is even more impressive, so you’re in safe hands. Be it the FE1s, Kings Inn or where to find the cheapest pint of Moretti, Ardin is an expert know-it-all so you best believe, he’s got you covered. With his infinite supply of energy (be it authentic or from alarming amounts of caffeine, we don’t know) Ardin will rally the troops to every single careers event and undoubtedly has all of the qualities it takes to be the best Careers Officer yet

Phoebe Wibawa

Diversity & Equality Officer

Phoebe is a 3rd year law student, originally from Indonesia and so well travelled she sometimes forgets which timezone she is in. Phoebe has picked up more than just fridge magnets while travelling, she has learned about diversity through experiencing various voices and cultures making her perfect for this role. It is Phoebe’s aim to bring a new spirit to the law society. Although she may not own a single business casual outfit, her time in the Law Colloquium has taught her how to turn complex conversations into real world change. Her overall vibe? Think cigarette-in-hand, pint-of-Guinness energy, with a dash of chaotic academic chic. Phoebe will definitely bring a fresh presence to the Law Society this year, both as D&E officer and with her effortlessly cute campus style.

Emily Davis

Competitions Officer

Naturally competitive, Emily was extremely disappointed to find out that as comps officer she isn’t the default winner of all LawSoc competitions. Brushing herself off from that slight err she instead has refocused her energy, ensuring that even if she can’t win the competitions she will make them better. After a hectic summer and with the training contract now in the bag (thanks Matheson), some are asking why Emily is now looking to “round out her CV”. Those who saw her campaign however know that Emily’s calls for a commuter friendly Mock Trial is about more than chasing clout on LinkedIn. Hailing from the depths of Louth (I’m told it’s so far north it isn’t even on the dart line). Emily has not let being from the Greater Dublin Area (Emphasis on greater) stop her from fully participating in LawSoc (queuing at 7am for swing ball tickets). Emily’s commuting has put her in the perfect position to know what ought to be done to make it easier for every culchie without a second home in south dublin.

Michael McKeever

Competitions Convenor A

Lawsoc and the defence forces have officially partnered up and named Michael McKeever, a charming yet cunning law student- who is definitely just doing this role to learn how to win Commercial Negotiations next year. A poignant debater, Michael is a force to be reckoned with. Often spotted in the smoking area chatting up a randomer

Eabha Cosgrove

Competitions Convenor B

One of Drogheda’s finest students, Eabha Cosgrove is keeping up the Louth tradition of pretending to care about lawsoc comps for the LinkedIn profile. Other things she’s doing to look like a good and productive person include teaching english for free and working in an human rights law firm. This level of performative is almost so impressive I sometimes thinks she actually likes what she does. Besides these good traits, Eabha enjoys drink driving with a bottle of Pinot Grigio, using AI to make the Mock Trial scripts and collecting bugs. Otherwise, Eabha is still recoiling from last year’s JMT and has now vowed to make it impossible for anyone else to win. Don’t trust the wine at the afters at the JMT final is what I’m saying.

Grace Harkin

Fourth Year Rep

Rumour has it that Grace thought she was applying for an internship when she ran for fourth year rep, but luckily for us she’s decided to stay put. A final year Law & Politics student, she’s known for working T Ball in first year, lowkey having a 100 day streak on LinkedIn minigames, & being from Derry. This year, Grace is here to beg the final years to neglect their capstones by going for pints, not be bad craic, and get left on read in the course gc. If you ever need to contact Grace, you can probably reach her at around 2am in Usher 3 via Snapchat Web, working on an assignment that was due two hours prior.

Mary Kate Ford

Third Year Rep

Mary-Kate, our third-year rep, hails from the land of Monasterboice. A proud commuter, she’s mastered that rocky road to Dublin better than most of us have mastered our exam notes. When she’s not navigating her way through the city or her colour-coded planner, you’ll find her perfecting her expertise on the best coffee spots Dublin has to offer. So if you’re a law student who isn’t purely fueled by caffeine, fear not as Mary-Kate will convert you by the end of the year. As the reigning queen of organisation, we know for sure that she will brilliantly balance orchestrating fantastic nights out with keeping everyone up-to-date on the latest LawSoc news.

Isabelle Farrell

Second Year Rep

Meet Isabelle, our lovely Second Year Rep and the second-best thing to come out of Meath since Pierce Brosnan. As a self-proclaimed second-class citizen (commuter), Isabelle has promised to dedicate her daily two hours on the train to planning fabulous second year nights out and a super fun bonding trip (god knows we’ll be needing it after studying Equity and Land Law!). Having spent her summer as a camp counsellor looking after fourteen nine-year-olds, she’s well equipped to deal with this year’s second years.
