Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
'The team has immersed themselves in our processes and projects so deeply that I have no concerns about letting them work directly with internal clients (which we don't normally do). The advice is always legally sound and solution-oriented, and often creative in managing novel projects.'
'Eversheds is actively looking for ways to make legal advice more efficient, particularly on recurring questions (creating FAQs, etc.). As a result, the team has gained so much trust that they have been able to expand their advice to cover ever larger business areas over time.'
