Adam Wagner is one of the UK's leading human rights barristers and the country's preeminent expert on Covid-19 laws. He was described in the House of Lords as 'the only person in the country who can make sense of this variety of regulations'. He appeared regularly on TV, radio and social media, interpreting the bewildering Covid-19 laws, explaining to Piers Morgan whether it was legal to sit on a park bench, and helping the public understand when politicians have broken Covid-19 laws. He also acted in many of the key legal cases, including for Reclaim These Streets relating to their rights to hold a vigil following the murder of Sarah Everard, in a series of cases about the hotel quarantine system and in a variety of challenges to fixed penalty notices for breaching lockdown laws. Adam was the Specialist Advisor to the Joint Committee on Human Rights year-long Inquiry into the human rights implications of Covid-19 and is currently a Visiting Professor of Law at Goldsmiths University.
