Adam Weston has been a partner at our London office since May 2018.
Adam defends healthcare professionals in cases involving gross negligence manslaughter, neglect, medicines act offences, sexual assault, common assault, fraud against the NHS, racially motivated public order offences, perverting the course of justice and indecent images of children. He also routinely advises clients in relation to DBS matters, following the closure of criminal and regulatory investigations.
