Reputation Management & Control

Whether you are a private individual, company or other organisation, your reputation is of the utmost importance. Our reputation and crisis management lawyers have been looking after our clients' reputations for decades, both publicly and privately.

We provide advice to high-profile and high net-worth individuals and companies and their officers, who find themselves at risk of having their reputations damaged by a threatened publication.

We have wide expertise in tackling and preventing unwarranted attacks, including securing injunctions to prevent the misuse of private information and the spread of fake news, as well as challenging defamatory content and harassing behaviour, and defusing personal and corporate disputes.

Our reputation services

  • Pre-publication advice -We provide advice to high-profile and high net-worth individuals and companies and their executives in relation to threatened publication about their personal or corporate affairs. We secure injunctions or reach resolutions with publishers to prevent the publication of defamatory material or private information. We have experience of dealing with ‘investigative journalism’ and threatened ‘exposes’, such as under cover documentaries, preventing publication where appropriate or helping you respond.
  • Post-publication - We help clients whose reputations are defamed, privacy invaded, or private information is misused and published, whether online or traditional media. We seek corrections, apologies and retractions, where appropriate, and work with you in relation to any post publication comment. We engage with relevant regulatory bodies such as IPSO ad co-ordinate where appropriate.
  • Crisis management - Our lawyers are specialised in helping you preparing and respond to a crisis, whatever that is. We work with high-profile individuals, Boards of Directors, In-house legal teams and stakeholder, to help you identify, plan and respond to a crisis. We provide simulation training and work with external experts so that you have a muti disciplinary team, including experts in cyber security, investigations, public relations and communications.
