EVERSHEDS LLP

Eversheds is one of the largest full service law firms in the world with 36 offices in major cities across the UK, Europe, Middle East and Asia.

Our size and geographic spread means that clients can trust us to handle all their jobs of any size and when clients need flexibility we can adapt our service to meet their specific needs. A client coming into any office can take advantage of the services available from all of them and can access truly specialist advice through their local contact. We provide a genuine gateway to the rest of the world whilst offering local know-how. When clients hire one of our lawyers they hire the experience of another 2,000, because we share our knowledge.

Our unique project management approach means that we scope, plan and cost work upfront giving clients what they want, when they want it: commercially focused advice, on time and at a price that fits their budget, with no nasty surprises along the way. It means Eversheds can be counted on to deliver great service and predictability in costs, timescales and quality.

The Leeds office has 681 people, including 45 partners and 154 legal advisers/ consultants specialising in six main practice areas : commercial, corporate, human resources, legal systems, litigation and dispute management and real estate.

2007 was our Centenary year in Leeds and saw us move to one of the most iconic buildings in Leeds: Bridgewater Place, showing our longstanding commitment to the region while providing a great place to work for our staff and a great place to do business with our clients.

Recent accolades include: winners of the Corporate Finance team award and the Real Estate team award at the Yorkshire Lawyer awards 2007 and the Corporate Law Firm of the Year award at the Yorkshire Insider Dealmakers Awards 2007. We are also ranked in the top tier of recommended Law Firms in Yorkshire and the Humber by Legal 500, 2007.

The community in which we work and do business is important to us and through "community brokers" such as Business in the Community and LawWorks we support local charities, schools, colleges and other "not for profit" organisations through volunteer activity, fundraising and pro bono legal advice.
