Recognised as one of the top 5 international lawyers you want on your side by Law and Crime Productions.
⎯ BIOGRAPHY
Dr Felicity Gerry KC is a high-profile legal expert that broadcasters go to for media commentary and presentation of international legal issues, particularly relating to international crimes, terrorism and homicide and corporate responsibility for human rights abuses. She is widely published on topics including women & law, technology & law, and reforming justice systems.
She has extensive court experience in significant legal challenges and her successful submissions to Governments have led to changes in the law on modern slavery, FGM and reproductive rights. In 2024 she drafted an application to the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities on behalf of Alex Henry – a young man with ASD who was convicted of murder under outdated UK joint enterprise law.
Felicity has appeared in the BAFTA nominated FGM documentary The Cruel Cut and ABC Foreign Correspondent’s documentary Saving Mary Jane and BBC 3 Series ‘Sex on the Edge’ , Channel 5 April Jones Murder documentary, Channel 5 Sarah Payne Documentary and on all major news channels including ABC, BBC, Sky News, Russia Today and Al Jazeera. She also contributed to the LOGIE nominated documentary about her client Zak Grieve.
Felicity is in high demand for her public speaking, most recently at Simmons and Simmons for International Women’s Day 2025.
