Simon King

Simon practises in clinical negligence and personal injury (including product liability) disputes, and in specialist criminal and regulatory work in related fields (eg health and safety prosecutions, professional disciplinary and regulatory tribunals). He also acts in coroners’ inquests and inquiries, including, in relation to the fatal shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes at Stockwell in 2005. Practice is based in London but is not restricted by location. He acts for both claimants and defendants and has been cited continuously since 1997 in the principal professional directories (Chambers & Partners, The Legal 500) as a leading London barrister in the area of personal injury. He is now similarly cited in the field of clinical negligence.
