Shoosmiths LLP

Shoosmiths LLP is particularly prominent in the automotive sector, where Milton Keynes-based practice head Robin Webb leads on major multi-jurisdictional projects and manages relationships with dozens of global brands. The hire of Ben Gardner into the Birmingham office has boosted the team’s strength in automotive work; he is especially noted for his capabilities in complex IT, warehousing, and outsourcing projects. The logistics sector is another area of strength, while the rail practice - led by Michelle Craven-Faulkner in Nottingham - provides wide-ranging expertise across the sector.
