About

Provided by Eversheds Sutherland

Eversheds Sutherland benefits from a highly experienced team of IT lawyers on a global basis. We will have undoubtedly advised others before you, on the issues your business is facing. This eliminates any concern you may have about your lawyers getting ‘up to speed’. In addition to working for major corporate and public customers across the globe, we also act for approximately 250 IT suppliers including those supplying software, systems and IT services and products to consumers and/or businesses. This means that we understand the pressure points from both perspectives and can help you strike the right deal which is deliverable and meets your goals.

Our Outsourcing team has an enviable track record, having worked on some of the largest outsourcing deals of recent years. Our focus is always on the key commercial drivers behind any outsourcing transaction and managing the risk appropriately – concentrating on areas such as service delivery, pricing and ensuring flexibility is embedded into the relationship. What is key in the current market is extracting value from the relationship and our advice always helps you to deliver that value. We have over recent years facilitated many major IT outsourcings in the technology, media and telecoms (TMT), financial services, diversified industrials, transport, consumer, retail, energy and mining sectors.
