Media and Reputation Management

Media issues can develop quickly and have a lasting impact on your business or personal reputation. Whether you are dealing with damaging content on social media or blogs, protecting your privacy, or managing regulatory risk, our approach is strategic and adaptable – moving quickly when urgency is required, and working discreetly when a lower-profile resolution is in your best interests.

We have significant experience helping commercial and individual clients protect and restore their reputations when faced with damaging or inaccurate content, whether on social media, in print, or on air. Our work includes urgent injunctions, online content removal and takedown requests, correction and apology negotiations, and proactive reputation audits.

Common areas we advise on:

• Defamation, malicious falsehood, and harassment claims
• Misuse of private information,
• Data protection disputes
• Breach of confidence claims
• Copyright and other intellectual property issues in media content
• Regulatory matters and complaints to bodies such as Ofcom, IPSO, and the ASA
• Pre-publication and pre-broadcast review to manage legal and reputational risk

Our Media team works closely with our Intellectual Property, Data Protection, and Dispute Resolution specialists to provide a complete service that protects your rights, manages your reputation, and supports your commercial goals.
