Eversheds Sutherland litigators resolve disputes through many processes, including negotiation, mediation, arbitration, trial and appeal.
At Eversheds Sutherland, we know our clients’ businesses and industries and work to support their objectives through creative and efficient dispute avoidance and resolution solutions. We represent regional, national and international clients in securities, insurance, energy, construction, financial services, manufacturing, banking, pharmaceuticals, technology and defense, among other industries. We recognize that a business win includes many factors, and are conscious of the disruptive impact litigation can have on a client’s executives and business operations. Risk management and avoidance are an integral part of our counseling services.
When litigation is unavoidable or presents the best alternative, we work with our clients to plan strategy and eliminate unnecessary costs. An early adopter of legal project management, our award-winning initiative provides easy-to-use tools that enhance client service and transparency, create efficiencies and add value to every assignment—regardless of size. With legal project management, we customize a litigation plan to fit each case and client.
We apply our business and industry knowledge not only to strategic advocacy for solving the current problem, but also to recommendations for avoiding future risks. Clients trust us with large and complex cases significant to their businesses. With over 80 years of litigation experience and more than 100 litigators, Eversheds Sutherland can provide predictable results. We offer early case analysis and resolution strategy designed to save our clients time and money and to free their internal resources for productive business pursuits. We also offer a deep bench and extensive trial experience when the client’s objective requires a forced resolution through the traditional legal system.
