‘Standout star in the field’ and global head of EHS Paul Verrico helms the practice at Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP from its Leeds office. Advising clients in the aftermath of complex fatal or catastrophic incidents forms a significant portion of the team’s workload, and the group frequently represents defendants at trial and in high-profile inquests. The practice's client roster is formed of well-known names, many of which Tim Hill acts for in cases where the clients’ reputation is at stake; Hill splits his time between Newcastle and London. Sarah Valentine is another practitioner to note whose specialisms include handling complex mental health-related health and safety work, while Philip Crosbie is noted for his ’outstanding commitment to clients’; both are based in Leeds. Amy Sadro left in December 2023.
