A 37-year-old partner at Eversheds collapsed and died in a meeting room at the firm's London office last week.
Gemma Curtis, a Birmingham-based finance partner, had moved to London where she was on secondment to the Senior Management team. On Wednesday last week she suddenly collapsed for reasons that are unknown. She leaves behind her husband and two-year-old child.
A service of thanksgiving will be held today at 11am at St Peter and St Paul's Church in Fakenham, Norfolk. The family has asked that donations be made to the NSPCC, and a just giving page has been set up here.
A spokeswoman for the firm said "with deep sadness we confirm that Gemma Curtis, a partner at Eversheds, tragically passed away suddenly on 13 May. Gemma was a much loved and respected partner of the firm and our thoughts are with her family at this time".
"Books of condolence have been opened at our Birmingham and London offices. Out of respect and at the request of Gemma's family at this difficult time, we make no further comment."
