A message from our Managing Partner
Welcome to our 2024 Responsible Business report
As we celebrate our 100th anniversary in the US, I often think about the ideals and goals of our founding partners, Elbert Tuttle and William Sutherland. While aspiring to create a great law firm, they always recognized their obligation to help those in need by representing pro bono clients with the same vigor as business clients. Today, in addition to continuing that proud pro bono tradition, it is my responsibility as Co-CEO to help ensure that as a responsible business we work to help our clients, our people and our communities to thrive across many different areas.
Mark D. Wasserman Managing Partner, Eversheds Sutherland (US) LLP Co-CEO, Eversheds Sutherland (Limited)
Our purpose and values are at the heart of our responsible business strategy and we are committed to embedding responsible business practices throughout our global operations.
We empower our people by creating a values-led, diverse, equitable and inclusive culture with well-being at its heart and invest in everyone’s future through learning and development.
As a law firm, we recognize our professional obligation and unique ability to advance the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 16 – Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.
At Eversheds Sutherland, we understand that our operations have a local, regional and global impact on the environment.
Our aim is to be a market leader in all things “good business” and ensure that responsible business is not just the task of the few but also is at the heart of everything we do across all roles within Eversheds Sutherland.
Our global ESG and Sustainability Group advise clients on a range of issues relating to their sustainability and ESG objectives.
