Tom Iverson

Spear’s Review

Simkins partner Tom Iverson has more than 15 years’ reputation management experience, working on a menagerie of media law issues, including privacy, defamation and copyright disputes, as well as entertainment industry disputes.

Working for corporates and public personalities (including royalty, beloved entertainers and high-profile politicians), Iverson is as confident in securing injunctions as he is lodging appeals with various industry regulators, including Ofcom, the BBC, the Advertising Standards Agency and the Information Commissioner’s Office.

Iverson’s work cuts across a range of sectors and jurisdictions, using pre-publication advice to arrest stirring media storms. Some of his highest-profile work has revolved around the legalities of music rights and royalties, representing world-renowned musicians and rights-holders.
