Nelsons has appointed a new Senior Associate to our expert Commercial Litigation team in Nottingham.
Dominic Simon trained at Shakespeare Martineau after graduating from Nottingham Law School in 2018 and has worked as a commercial litigation solicitor since 2020.
He recently moved to us from Eversheds Sutherland, where he has spent the past three years as an Associate focusing mainly on financial banking services litigation. Dominic Simon said:
“I made the decision to move to Nelsons as a chance to get back into a broader variety of commercial litigation. I have gained invaluable experience with Eversheds Sutherland, and now felt the right time for the next step in my career.
“With the variety of dispute areas that Nelsons covers and a highly regarded litigation practice, I am eager to get stuck in with the team. The positive workplace culture of the firm was another big motivation for the move, along with the exciting growth strategy which has been accelerated since Nelsons became part of Lawfront. It’s been great to speak to the commercial litigation team about these plans and look at the best ways to support the East Midlands market. I am particularly interested in the work around the manufacturing sector and product liability, which is an area of specialism for the team.”
Dominic has experience in breach of contract, indemnity claims, shareholder disputes, partnership disputes, and misrepresentation. He also specialises in commercial litigation for manufacturers, providing tailored solutions to complex legal challenges, with an understanding of the commercial pressures manufacturers face.
Daniel Brumpton, Partner and head of our Commercial Litigation team, said:
“When looking for new talent, Dominic is exactly the calibre of candidate that we hope for, and we are pleased to have welcomed him into the team. He really understands what Nelsons stands for as a firm, and his knowledge and interests tie in well to our strategy for the department. Our team has continued to expand and I know Dominic will be a great support not only to our clients, but also in helping us to achieve our development goals.”
