Simon is a partner in the Litigation team whose practice focuses on multi-jurisdictional patent litigation across all industry sectors, but particularly on the various aspects of the healthcare sector.

Simon has litigated high-profile cases before the Supreme Court, Court of Appeal and High Court concerning both patents and SPCs. His experience includes cases involving blockbuster small molecule, antibody, and non biological complex drugs, and medical devices. Simon’s expertise also encompasses the chemical sector, and he has assisted in cases involving polymers and industrial chemical processes.

Much of Simon’s work involves cross-border litigation and he has extensive experience assisting as co-counsel in litigation taking place across Europe and elsewhere, including the US and Asia. Coupled with his cross-border patent litigation experience, this means Simon is very well-placed to assist his clients to develop successful patent enforcement and defence strategies.
