Basically it's down to what nationality her husband is/where he lives. If they're both Polish nationals then she can file for divorce in Poland. If he's not Polish, she can file in the country where he now lives (of course if that's Ireland it's no use to her but if it's Poland or indeed any other EU country that's ok) or she can file in Poland but she needs to go back and live there for six months first. Those are her options in a nutshell.

Here's a link to the divorce laws within the EU:
europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/family/couple/divorce-separation/index_en.htm

It basically has all the information you need.

The one thing that's a bit misleading is the sample story which actually gives an example of a couple married in Ireland but suggests that you can file for divorce after only a month's separation. You need to be living apart for four out of the previous five years.

If her husband is non EU or EEA but lives in an EU country (other than Ireland) she could possibly get the divorce in that country but I think it has to be a joint application.

As for a divorce in Poland, there is just no way around the law regardless of what solicitor you use. There is a firm of solicitors in Dublin city centre called Tracey who have a Polish speaking solicitor on their staff and handle divorces between Poland and Ireland. They could certainly advise you. facebook/traceysolicitors/about/
