Hugh Johnson

London law firm Osbornes Law has appointed Hugh Johnson at its new head of medical negligence. 

Johnson joins the firm from Stewarts where he spent 17 years, the last six as partner. He brings 20 years’ experience of medical negligence litigation, with a particular specialism representing claimants with life-changing brain and spinal injuries.

He is the co-author of Lewis & Buchan on Clinical Negligence (eight edition). 

Managing partner Joanne Wescott says: 'Our team already know Hugh well and we have no doubt that he will provide steady leadership and successfully steer the team to achieve further growth.'

Hugh’s appointment follows the death of Osbornes Law’s former head of medical negligence, Stephanie Prior, who died in February after a two-year battle with cancer.
