Praised by clients for its ‘seamless coordination across jurisdictions,’ Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP’s international business reorganisations group is well equipped to handle a range of cross-border mandates, including pre-acquisition reorganisations, post-acquisition integrations, and regulatory compliance. The team’s extensive experience alongside its multijurisdictional capabilities continues to attract new clients to its roster, which is comprised of notable names from the energy, industrials, and private equity sectors. Leading the department is health and life sciences expert Lee Harris, who concentrates on entity rationalisations, carve-outs, and post-merger integrations. On the tax front, Ben Jones is a key contact in the practice, while Kyle Hunter concentrates on cash business reorganisations and entity clean-ups. Other significant practitioners include Wyn Jones and Leeds-based Amanda Partland. Nicola Evans departed from the firm in July 2024.
