LONDON, October 18, 2010 - Russell Jones & Walker Solicitors is representing ten families of victims
of the 7/7 London bombings at the ongoing inquest into the incidents, which
began on 14th October 2010. The independent Coroner's Inquests into the
London Bombings of 7 July 2005, which will be overseen by the Right
Honourable Lady Justice Hallett D.B.E., will examine the details of the case
and the lead up to the bombings on 7th July 2005 and have been welcomed by
the victims' families, who continue to seek answers about the terrorist
attacks more than five years later.

52 civilians were killed when three bombs exploded on London Underground
trains, followed by a further explosion on a double-decker bus in Tavistock
Square on the morning of Thursday 7th July 2005. A further 700 people were
injured and the four suicide bombers also died. The incidents have since been
collectively known as the "7/7 bombings".

James Carlton (www.rjw.co.uk/meet-the-team/profiles/james-carlton/
), partner at Russell Jones & Walker Solicitors representing ten of the
families involved, said:

"For all the families involved in this inquest it has been a long, often
difficult wait. They are all understandably devastated by their individual
loss and want to find answers to the circumstances surrounding how their
loved ones came to die. At the same time, all involved are concerned as to
whether there were, or indeed are now, any steps that could have been taken
to prevent these atrocities from occurring at the time or again in the future
by any or all of the authorities involved.

"The decision by Lady Justice Hallett to examine the actions of
intelligence agencies in the scope of the inquest was a welcome inclusion for
the victims' families."
