Why choose our Defamation and Reputation Management lawyers?
Many cases on which we have been instructed have changed the law in these areas. Our dedicated lawyers work independently and with leading sets of media law barristers. Our specialists have appeared on TV, radio and in the press giving their expert views on notable defamation cases and privacy issues.
We are often instructed at short notice to seek and resist pre-publication injunctions and provide fast, commercial, strategic advice to protect our clients' reputations. We also secure take-downs, apologies and damages as well as advising publishers on various claims and applications in relation to defamatory user-generated content and other matters.
Our clients include public authorities, professional bodies, companies, media organisations and private individuals.
