Mark Lewis told BBC Radio 5 live he would take legal action after it emerged the News of the World hired private investigators to follow him.
His former wife, daughter and other solicitors were also followed.
News International has said the action was "deeply inappropriate" and was "not condoned by any current executives".
Mr Lewis, whose clients include the family of Milly Dowler, also told the Victoria Derbyshire programme that he was "looking over his shoulder, thinking I'm being followed".
"I don't know what's actually happening out there," he said.
"It's staggering. It's very upsetting to find that out that they could even think of doing that. It was just wrong."
'Private life'Mr Lewis said the paper had been trying to find out whether he was having an affair with his former assistant Charlotte Harris, who also represents phone-hacking victims, but that it was "barking up the wrong tree".
"My private life has absolutely nothing to do with my professional life. Even if they had found out what they were trying to, it would have made no difference to the cases I was representing," he told the programme.
He said he was taking civil action for an invasion of his privacy.
"To attack the lawyer who is pursuing cases for other people is a very serious matter," he added.
Mr Lewis also revealed he had seen documents that showed politicians, including the Labour MP Tom Watson - a key figure in the Commons' phone-hacking inquiries - were also under surveillance.
