Work Department
Mishcon Private
Position
Simon is an Managing Associate in the Mishcon Private department.
He has experience in acting for a wide variety of clients ranging from companies to high net worth individuals to charities, across a wide range of domestic and international commercial disputes.

Before starting his carrier in law, Simon worked for an Italian commercial art dealership in Mayfair and Milan for seven years.
