Manager - Legal Solutions Partnership

Career

Although John was admitted as a solicitor in 1993, his legal career started back in 1986 as an articled clerk (trainee solicitor) at J Tickle & Co, a central London firm specialising in medical law and medical negligence.

He completed his training at a Mackenzie Knight, initially in Southall, then set up a new office in Hounslow. Alongside medical negligence, his work was mostly crime and personal injury.

Having qualified, John focussed on personal injury and medical negligence in Central London at Simpson Millar, then at Fennemores in the Home Counties.  He then became a partner at Vincents Solicitors, setting up an office in Luton that became the office of Legal Solutions Partnership in 2006.

In 2015, LSP was taken over by Freeman Harris. John manages the Freeman Harris office in Dunstable which is still badged as LSP. The office handles mostly personal injury, family and Polish community work. His own work is focussed on complex medical negligence, including negligence within the mental health sector. He continues to work on high value personal injury claims and represents clients at inquests. John also acts for claimants in other civil matters, in particular, actions against the police.
