GLOBAL law firm Eversheds Sutherland has signalled its intent for further growth of its Belfast operations by taking up larger offices on Montgomery Street in the city centre.

Established in Belfast in 2015 and now with 15 staff, the office is led by partners Lisa Bryson, Gareth Planck and Matthew Howse, working across several main practice areas including real estate, banking, immigration and employment, procurement and litigation.

The Belfast office works closely with its Dublin office, offering expert legal services including a specialist ‘Brexit-hub’ across the island of Ireland and the UK.

Alan Murphy, managing partner of Eversheds in Ireland said: “We're thrilled to have moved into new offices right in the heart of Belfast city centre. This demonstrates our commitment to Northern Ireland and will allow us to increase our footprint in the region.”

“We have an ambitious growth strategy and we recognise the role which Belfast and Northern Ireland has to play in that.

“This new office space will see us further develop our services and offering. With more room, it will allow us to host internal client events and gives us more flexibility in our growth path, which is hugely exciting.”
