For individuals
When your name is the story.
A personal crisis can put your career, your family and your privacy under pressure at the same time. We work quietly, with one adviser who knows the whole matter and a team that moves together.
Situations we handle
- Allegations or complaints made against you
- Investigations that affect a role, a directorship or a business you own
- Family and private matters that have reached, or may reach, the media
- Online defamation, harassment and the misuse of private information
- Media approaches, doorstops and unwanted attention
What the team does
We start by understanding what is known, what may come out and who needs to hear what. Legal advisers assess your position and options. Media advisers decide whether, when and how to respond, and prepare you if you need to speak. Where relevant, digital experts track and respond to online material, and we can bring in investigators, personal security and wellbeing support for you and your family.
Legal advisers on the team can advise on how to structure communications to protect legal professional privilege where it is available. Privilege is never guaranteed.
