About Imran Khan

Imran Khan is probably best known for his work representing the family of Stephen Lawrence who was murdered in a racist attack in 1993. He is recognised as a leading human rights lawyer and is presently a partner in his own firm Imran Khan and Partners based in Holborn, Central London.

It was his work as a lawyer and as an activist in this regard which led him to represent the family of Stephen Lawrence which brought him to national and international attention; and led to the establishment of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry.  The impact of this inquiry was felt throughout the criminal justice and public service systems.  His later representation of the families of Victoria Climbe (who was tortured to death – aged 8 – in February 2000) and Zahid Mubarek (who was murdered by his racist cell mate in March 2000), and the public inquiries into their deaths, led to substantial social change regarding the care of children and prisoners in the UK respectively. 

Imran Khan has lectured nationally and internationally on human rights and criminal law. He has also written widely on these subjects. He has received numerous awards and honorary doctorates in recognition of his work.
