Tom Goldsmith

Eversheds Sutherland

Eversheds Sutherland corporate real estate partner Tom Goldsmith’s property clients include the likes of The Collective, Redevco, Landsec and Romulus, while his tech giant roster includes pretty much every big name you can think of. He is hamstrung from publicly discussing most of his clients, but he can confirm that he has been Zoomed into Hollywood to facilitate the completion of big tech TV studios in the UK.

Goldsmith’s specialism is advising corporates, notably those in the tech sector, on their HQ deals. Facebook alone has been keeping his team busy on a raft of deals around the world during 2020. In some cases, the firm’s advice to these stellar clients extends far beyond the real estate group. Indeed, at the start of 2020 Eversheds was appointed as Facebook’s outside counsel for privacy incident response globally.

Goldsmith is also client partner for Facebook alongside several other of the world’s best-known tech giants. That US link is likely to be instrumental in Goldsmith’s leadership and BD role within Eversheds, as he looks to cement deeper links with his colleagues stateside, particularly on the West Coast. Expect great things.
