Eversheds Sutherland
Eversheds Sutherland handles contentious and non-contentious employment work for a variety of major corporates, with experience in complex and multi-jurisdictional issues. The firm represents Scottish Autism in Human Resource matters. This year has seen the firm represent charities in a number of tribunal proceedings including an unfair constructive dismissal and complex discrimination claim relating to an alleged failure to make reasonable adjustments. It also successfully defended a global electronic commerce organisation in a complex race discrimination claim, resulting in a substantially reduced settlement. On the non-contentious front, the team advises a number of major corporations on gender pay gap reporting and Brexit preparation. The practice is led by Dawn Dickson, who has extensive experience in high-value litigation, negotiated exits, redundancies and TUPE transactions for clients in the diversified industrials sector.
