Award winning regional law firm Harding Evans have promoted medical negligence specialist Ken Thomas to the Partnership and becomes one of the youngest Partners in the firm’s history.

Ken, 33 joined Harding Evans in 2000 and since then, under his guidance, the firm has gained a nationwide reputation for its medical negligence work, being highly rated by the Legal 500 and Chambers Guide to the UK Legal Profession.


He is the only medical negligence panel member in Gwent and has become well-known for his work on behalf of injured patients including many handicapped children and their families. He has acted for medical negligence claimants for the last 10 years and has settled many successful claims - securing damages in excess of £3 million.

Last year Ken won the prestigious Lawyer of the Year Award at the Welsh Law Awards which was in recognition of his work as a leading medical negligence lawyer in Wales.

On his promotion Ken comments “I am absolutely delighted to join the Partnership. Harding Evans has expanded significantly over recent years and provides employment for over 100 staff and I am looking forward to working with my fellow Partners on the next stage of our expansion”. Ken lives in Cardiff and is married with two young children.

Zep Bellavia, Managing Partner of Harding Evans said “Ken’s appointment will further strengthen the Partnership and we are proud to have someone of his calibre delivering a first class service to our clients”.
