sed - delete until match every line 1

[moria6]

I would like to delete chars from the start of the line until pattern match (in this case the word "Local") in every line.

I know how to delete 1st "n" chars and how to delete a pattern but not how to combine the two.

Any help much appreciated!

A starting point:
sed 's!.*Local!!' /path/to/input > output

Hope This Helps, PH.
