Kim Harrison

Head of Abuse Law

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I have over 15 years’ experience in personal injury law, having qualified as a solicitor in 2005. Although my background lies within all types of personal injury cases, I have for many years specialised in two areas: representing victims and survivors of abuse and assault, both recent and non-recent, adults and children, and also acting in public inquiries. Some of my cases can also involve complex human rights issues and I am also a human rights specialist as well as acting for families at inquests and associated Human Rights Act claims. My specialist Public Inquiry work includes representing clients at the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA). My civil work involves representing victims and survivors of abuse against organisations such as the Catholic and Anglican Church, Scouts, schools, hospitals, sporting organisations and clubs, taxi firms, the Ministry of Defence and social services. This includes the highly complex and specialist ‘failure to protect’ claims acting for clients against the local authority in cases where it is alleged clients should have been taken into care earlier than they in fact were, and as a result have suffered additional and unnecessary abuse, violence and neglect in the familial home, or clients who have been abused in the care system. I have represented many clients in the Independent Inquiry Into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA), advocating for reforms to the law to assist victims and survivors including in the Nottinghamshire Children’s Homes Investigation, the Westminster Investigation, the Residential Schools Investigation, the Janner Investigation, the Lambeth Investigation, the Child Sexual Exploitation by Organised Networks Investigation, the Religious Organisations Investigation and I was APIL’s legal representative in the Accountability and Reparations Phase Two Investigation. I have also acted in some high profile inquests.
