Client Successes
A selection of examples of our work and how we have successfully helped our clients.
The Scenario
Our client had experienced an increase in false and defamatory fake reviews on their Google My Business page. The material caused significant distress to our client and had the potential to damage their reputation.
Our Solution
We wrote to Google explaining that the reviews were fake and left by a competitor to diminish our client’s five-star ratings from genuine clients and asked for the fake and defamatory reviews to be removed. With our quick response, we were able to minimise the amount of distress and commercial damage our client was suffering.
The Scenario
Our client is one of the UK’s leading celebrity dentists. An otherwise happy patient of our client filed a complaint against them with General Dental Council (the GDC). Several false and highly defamatory reviews appeared on our client’s Google page and Trustpilot profile under false names.
Our Solution
We wrote a detailed letter before claim to the defendant and explained how her reviews were false, malicious, and defamatory and could cause serious financial harm to our client's business. We explained that our client would hold the defendant liable should legal action be taken. Following receipt of our letter, the defendant deleted all the reviews under each fake name.
The Scenario
Our client (the claimant in the case) had been at school with the defendant. Our client was being defamed by the defendant on social media (Instagram and Snapchat). The defendant had also caused videos of our client to be circulated online. The untrue allegations were of the most serious nature, including the allegation that our client was a rapist and a paedophile.
Our Solution
Following a carefully worded letter from us pointing out the serious legal repercussions to the defendant of publishing the material, all posts were removed, and the defendant agreed never to repeat the harmful allegations.
The Scenario
Our client had been in an online relationship with the defendant for four years, whom they had only met once in person. When our client ended the relationship, the defendant threatened to disclose their relationship to our client’s wife and also harass them.
Our Solution
This case involved sensitive legal issues of private information and misuse of private information and revenge porn. With our careful and sensitive handling the matter was resolved between the parties and the defendant was persuaded to delete all images.
The Scenario
Our client is a popular YouTuber with over 9 million views and 23,000 subscribers. We defended him against a claim brought by a participant in her new YouTube show (the Claimant). While the show was being recorded, the Claimant and our client disagreed on several points. With recordings of the heated disagreements being published online, the Claimant then wrote a letter before action to our client accusing her of harassment and defamation.
Our Solution
We wrote to the Claimant’s solicitor debunking their letter before action which in turn resolved the matter. We explained our client’s position, stating that the Claimant knew the type of content created on the client’s channel before joining the show, that the Claimant knew that that the show would be streamed live, and that proof of harassment and serious harm would need to be shown to have occurred.
The Scenario
Nath Solicitors assisted an online fashion designer retailer facing defamation from a business competitor on Instagram. The competitor had made false and damaging statements about the authenticity of the retailer’s products, leading to doubts among existing customers and potential business partners.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors stepped in and provided evidence of the products’ authenticity to counter the false claims. We also initiated communication with the anonymous competitor and issued a cease and desist letter. This approach led to the removal of the defamatory posts and an apology.
The Scenario
A professional investor had invested in a company managed by the defendant. When the investor sought to redeem their investment, their relationship with the defendant deteriorated, and the defendant created a defamatory website making baseless accusations against the investor, including claims of criminal activity and fraud.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors issued a detailed letter before claim, emphasizing the defamatory nature of the allegations and the harm caused to the investor’s reputation. While the defendant initially resisted, legal proceedings were initiated. Eventually, a settlement agreement was reached, which included the removal of the defamatory website
The Scenario
Anonymous threats were being sent to a building company and the claimants. The defendant threatened to publish false and defamatory statements in local newspapers, accusing the building company of being “bogus builders” and warning people against using their services.
Our Solution
Given the malicious nature of these threats, Nath Solicitors successfully wrote to the defendant to address the issue. This intervention prevented the publication of damaging statements, especially considering the underlying litigation between the claimants and the defendant.
The Scenario
The defendant, a former customer of a hospitality management company, initiated a campaign of defamation, making false claims and encouraging others to do the same after requesting a refund for a booking made with the company before it went into liquidation.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors intervened, issuing a letter to address the false allegations. The result was the removal of defamatory posts and the cessation of the defendant’s harmful conduct.
The Scenario
Nath Solicitors represented a professional and a company that had been targeted with false and defamatory reviews on their Google Review page, alleging a lack of professionalism, poor-quality services, and negligence regarding inheritance matters in Poland.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors successfully dealt with this unpleasant situation and had the defamatory content removed.
The Scenario
A church’s reputation was under relentless attack from the defendant on social media. The defendant made false allegations on platforms like Facebook and a website, including claims of being a cult, theft, and controlling behaviour.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors intervened, demanding the defendant cease these actions and seek undertakings to prevent legal action. The harassment was successfully stopped through legal intervention.
The Scenario
A reputable aesthetic clinic and its aesthetics doctor, faced defamation following a client’s appointment. The client posted a highly defamatory review, alleging negligence and improper conduct related to COVID-19 safety measures.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors responded by refuting the allegations and citing legal precedent. They sought remedies, leading to the removal of the review and an apology, protecting the clinic’s reputation.
The Scenario
A reputable diamond art company was facing defamation and harassment from a former customer. The customer engaged in a campaign of defamation on social media platforms, including Facebook and YouTube, causing significant distress and harm to the company’s reputation.
Our Solution
Nath Solicitors intervened, and the defendant agreed to resolve the matter by deleting defamatory content and removing a private Facebook group created to harm the company’s reputation.
The Scenario
Our client a supplier of ODM mobile telephones and accessories asked us to help him negotiate his agency agreement with a large Chinese supplier. The products were to be supplied to a large network operator who was the largest in the country.
Our Solution
We assisted our client in negotiating the terms of the agreement with the Chinese supplier and in particular advised in respect of what would happen if the agreement were to be terminated and the impact of the Commercial Agent’s Regulations in protecting our clients long terms interests.
The Scenario
Our client, a large multinational, looked to implement agreements with its other group companies in particular to transfer data outside of the EU.
Our Solution
We worked with lawyers and local regulators in various countries in order to ensure relevant data protection filings were made at local level. The completion of the project was when the data transfer agreements with the parent company outside of the EU had been entered into in order to allow transfer of data out of the EU.
The Scenario
The Defendant had received aesthetic treatments from our client, an aesthetic clinic, and dissatisfaction arose when the Claimant experienced common side effects after undergoing procedures. The clinic provided thorough consultations, signed consent forms, and clear aftercare instructions. Despite this, the Defendant initiated discussions about obtaining a refund. The Defendant’s conduct included recording a conversation without consent and making threatening emails.
Our Solution
We were engaged to write to the Defendant and in the end, we managed to obtain resolution between the parties which was a successful outcome for both sides.
The Scenario
A GP Practice received a letter from solicitors asking for disclosure of a deceased patient’s records as part of the administration of the deceased’s estate. The solicitors had sent a copy of the grant of probate from the High Court to our client. The Practice was unsure if the records could in fact be disclosed.
Our Solution
We reviewed the matter and advised in respect of the Practice’s obligations of confidentiality and data protection towards other living individuals who could have been identified through the medical records. We also advised the Practice manager that that the grant of probate was invalid in that it did not bear the seal of the court and she could therefore refuse the request on that basis in addition to the grounds of confidentiality and data protection.
The Scenario
We were instructed by one of the two joint shareholders in a company to resolve a shareholders dispute. The company had been set up by two friends to produce and market food products. There was no shareholder agreement in place although it was accepted that each party held 50% of the shares.
Our Solution
After advising our client, they made an offer to take over outstanding loans of the company and to repay the other shareholder a further loan she had made to the company from the distributable profits of the company over the next few years. In return the other shareholder was to enter into a share transfer agreement and sign a stock transfer form for transfer of her shares to our client.
The Scenario
Two professionals set up a company with no shareholder agreement. After a time, our client decided to dedicate her full time to the business and wanted to exercise more management and financial control as the other shareholder became unhappy. Our client realised that the business she was qualified to run and which she had set up was no longer in her control.
Our Solution
We advised our client as to the best way to proceed to resolve the shareholders dispute. In the end, the co shareholder chose to offer their letter of resignation which we advised could occur; our client was not at all surprised by the resignation because she said we had “prepared her well to expect it”. Ultimately the matter was resolved to our client’s great satisfaction.
The Scenario
We were asked by a client to help put in place an Information Governance Framework across their Group companies. We started by carrying out data audits of the companies concerned.
Our Solution
Once the results of the audits had been analysed (which involved checking the client’s key commercial contracts) we were able to determine the gaps across the organisation and its subsidiaries in order to implement policies and procedures to demonstrate compliance with data protection laws.
