David Imison

Spear’s Review

Partner and chief executive David Imison has spent more than 10 years at Schillings leading and developing its advisory offering, which has grown from a standing start to a team of 30-plus client advisers. ‘I wear two hats,’ he tells Spear’s. ‘The first involves helping our largest clients solve reputation and privacy problems; the other entails transforming the firm from a traditional law firm to a multidisciplinary reputation and privacy practice.’ 

Imison leads the firm’s intelligence and investigations and critical risk arms, and specialises in guiding his clientele through situations that are nuanced and potentially controversial.
