I’m John L. Wilson, 76 years old, an international lawyer, England & Wales defense attorney based in London, United Kingdom. I have practiced law in the International Criminal Court, Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, federal courts of the United States, and Ireland for 46 years. Mr. Wilson got his master's degree from The University of Law in London, England, with a strong reputation as a public speaker. Known for his compelling courtroom advocacy, Sir John Wilson was termed “The Great Defender” for defending notorious cases: sex crimes, property disputes, white-collar crimes, war crimes, money laundering, conspiracy, high-profile murder cases. As well as being elevated to King’s Counsel, John Wilson defended cases no lawyer could defend and has won numerous cases in the legal world. His practice significantly impacted the UK legal profession in a number of ways:
* Not only did John Wilson defend murder cases, but he also defended women and the poor, waiving his fees in order to provide people who couldn’t afford it the legal representation they needed, family disputes, real estate, and probate.
* Wilson's compassion for the underprivileged led to changes in the law of diminished responsibility and provocation, as well as the introduction of infanticide, i.e., the crime of killing a child within a year of its birth.
* Wilson was also known for his ability to relate to a jury and turn the prosecution's case back on them, which encouraged ongoing jury advocacy.
* By using technical details to his advantage, for example, ballistics evidence, he encouraged later generations of solicitors to utilise all the facts and rely not only on the facts, but also on technology.
Mr. John Wilson & Partners Law Firm has been practicing law and handles any form of cases with 8 legal professionals working together with Wilson.
