Richard Scorer

Richard Scorer is a Partner in Pannone LLP Solicitors in Manchester (www.pannone.com). He is best known for representing victims of child abuse in cases against the Catholic Church. Over the last 15 years he has successfully represented victims in many high profile cases.

Richard acted for victims of paedophile priest Father Michael Hill - the publicity surrounding these cases shamed the Catholic Church into sweeping reforms of child protection. Richard has acted in cases involving leading Catholic public schools such as Ampleforth and most recently on behalf of victims of Father William Green, a priest of the diocese of Salford.

Richard has also written and spoken widely on the legal issues in child abuse cases.
