Bio
Quentin Bargate
Damian was, inmy view, one of the best associates at Simmons & Simmons. He had excellent client skills, knew the law and was always fun to work with (perhaps too much fun for some of the more traditional members of the firm). Like cream, he has risen to the top - and well deserved!
David Plummer
I hired Damian on a number of jobs with tight deadlines, requiring expert knowledge and in depth legal opinion on both compliance and contract matters. Not only were the results timely, but the suggested ways forward were innovative whilst remaining practical.
