James Ruane  – Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP

The Leeds-based practice at Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP is well situated to provide its clients with ‘excellent sector expertise’ when advising on a range of contentious and non-contentious matters. Under the leadership of commercial IT expert Nick Stubbs, the team handles a number of large-scale outsourcing projects and procurement initiatives for clients in the financial services sector. Stubbs co-heads the practice with James Hyde, who spearheads the team’s contentious offering through his ability to act in contractual, cyber and data disputes. James Ruane, who supports the team’s outsourcing and procurement work, is another key contact. Edward Williams departed the firm in June 2022.
