A Company Commercial Group partner at Eversheds Sutherland, Eve England advises clients across a range of sectors on technology and consumer law matters.

Eve England helps clients like yours navigate an increasingly digital environment, providing strategic advice on matters relating to the use of technology solutions across your business, whether in relation to new customer propositions or in relation to the procurement of business technology and outsourcing systems. Eve has been advising clients on their technology solutions since her qualification with the firm in 2007. As one of few UK lawyers with experience in advising on both consumer law and business-to-business arrangements, Eve has a unique skill-set within Eversheds Sutherland that offers a one-stop-shop for those of her clients who are looking for holistic and pragmatic advice on their global technology strategies.

Eve spends most of her time helping businesses like yours ensure that they establish legally compliant and user-friendly customer journeys for new end user propositions, as well as advising on the commercial contracts underpinning those solutions. Eve also spends a significant amount of her time advising clients in the financial services sector in relation to the regulatory compliance obligations that apply to their cloud and third party technology outsourcings.

Eve’s experience in advising clients on both end user and business technology arrangements has also meant she is well placed to advise private equity houses and other investment businesses on the acquisition of start-up and disruptive financial tech businesses, and she regularly provides strategic advice on critical licensing arrangements and business model structures, as well as drafting and negotiating new commercial arrangements to facilitate post completion activities.
