About Eversheds Sutherland (US)

Eversheds Sutherland combines a US legal practice with an international platform. Its services include tax, finance, and advice on projects that bring together commercial, regulatory, and infrastructure questions. These practices are especially relevant to businesses whose investments require coordination among several legal disciplines or across national borders.
