Welcome
Welcome to Ken Cooper-Stephenson's website. The site is constructed and researched independently by Wildwood, England. The intention is to provide information about Ken, and to enable contact with him.

Ken now resides close to Deep Cove in North Shore Vancouver and, although technically retired, he has recently co-authored a new edition of his landmark publication Personal Injury Damages in Canada.
