The legal team representing Prince Harry and the other claimants in their case against Mirror Group Newspapers is comprised of reputable lawyers who are experienced in high-profile cases. One of the most prominent members of the team is lead counsel David Sherborne, who has represented a number of celebrities and has consistently taken on the British tabloid press.
David Sherborne is leading two of Prince Harry’s current legal actions, including the case against Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers regarding accusations of phone hacking and other illegal activities, which the company denies.
Additionally, Sherborne has previous experience in handling cases related to information unlawfully obtained by the British tabloid press. This expertise has been further enhanced when he represented phone-hacking victims in the 2012 Leveson inquiry, which examined the culture, practices, and ethics of the British press following the phone hacking scandal.
Apart from Prince Harry, David Sherborne’s list of clients includes other A-listers such as Diana, Tony Blair, and Donald J. Trump. He has worked on media-related cases for Paul McCartney, Michael Douglas, Jude Law, Sienna Miller, Kate Moss, Elton John, and Harry Styles. Recently, Sherborne represented Coleen Rooney, the wife of Wayne Rooney in a libel case, which she won, and Johnny Depp, in a libel dispute with News Group Newspapers, which he lost.
