About The Lettermore Group
Why “Lettermore”?
The Lettermore Group takes its name from Lettermore (Leitir Móir), an island in Connemara, County Galway, Ireland, reflecting family heritage and values rooted in resilience, integrity, and community. Those same principles continue to guide the firm's approach to leadership, service, and partnership.
The Lettermore Group was founded to help organizations navigate complex challenges where government, business, infrastructure, and public policy intersect—bringing experienced counsel and productive partnerships to move important initiatives forward.
