Whether the defamatory material has already been shared, or at this point only being threatened, will significantly alter the strategies we use to deal effectively with your situation.
Pre-Publication Defamation
Our ability to act quickly and decisively when required sets us apart from many other defamation law firms. If you are seeking to prevent publication of material, it is essential to act urgently. Our team is set up and designed to get to grips with the legal context of your case quickly and respond to tight deadlines. Whether we need to issue an injunction application or are able to negotiate a pre-publication deal depends on the facts of your case. Either way, we are available at short notice to provide robust and practical legal guidance.
Post-Publication Defamation
When defamatory material is already out there in the public domain our priorities are different – it is all about minimising the damage. This can be achieved by securing a swift removal of the offending content, pushing for a retraction, an apology or clarification. In certain cases, you may want to seek monetary damages or other forms of compensation.
Follow our guide on ‘What to do if being Defamed – Top Tips to Preserve Evidence’ to ensure we have the requisite materials to build a strong case. This increases the likelihood of you obtaining the best possible outcome.
