The Ipswich office of Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP is the core hub for its national corporate claims practice, which handles high-value claims for large companies that come to the firm directly rather than through a panel of insurers. ‘Whether the claims are small and routine, or large and complex, the team provides excellent work and guidance’, remarks one client. Senior partner and ‘all round star’ Nicola Lashmar leads the team. She supported the family of a claimant in seeking to undergo innovative neuromodulation treatment following injuries sustained in a road accident. Key partner Louise Bland, who is ‘technically brilliant and tactically astute’, legal director Paul Coppin and senior associate Carl Hurle also play pivotal roles in major cases.
