Protecting your reputation
Media recognition can be hugely exciting and the result of hard-won personal or commercial
success. It may even be a goal in itself or part of a strategy to capitalise on your
reputation.
The media spotlight can also be terrifying, unjust and intrusive and in an instant, shred the
reputation you have worked a lifetime for.
Collyer Bristow LLP is a leader in the field of reputation management. We have a team of
specialist lawyers whose collective experience covers some of the most ground-breaking and
eye-catching of cases. Our expertise covers all of the disciplines that are relevant to the
protection of reputation including:
- defamation (libel and slander),
- breach of confidence,
- privacy, and
- harassment.
Whilst we have worked for many "household names" including international sportsmen/women and
world renowned musicians, it is not just these clients who fall foul of the media, or indeed a
spiteful blogger. The reputations of companies can be rubbished by former employees or customers
and celebrities are not the only ones who find themselves at risk by virtue of previous
relationships.
We work for all those for whom their reputation is precious. Whether a media crisis is brewing
or whether you are pro-actively seeking to manage, protect or exploit your reputation we would be
delighted to help you. As a rule, we often find working with the media can be more effective
than resorting to litigation every time.
If you need to contact us out of normal working hours or require an urgent injunction, please
contact a member of the team on +44 (0)7971 845932 or +44 (0)7834 079706.
