PR & Communications

This award-winning department handles the PR and litigation support aspects of many of the largest cases in the international commercial courts. Recent examples include a £200m litigation against one of the largest banks in the world, a $1.25bn commercial court claim arising from international sanctions, and a politically charged litigation over the return of $2bn in gold.
 
They successfully control narratives, protect reputations and conduct targeted media campaigns on a variety of multi-jurisdictional litigations, including those involving international banks, group actions, regulatory prosecutions, and disputes involving high-profile individuals and international corporates.
 
The team works effectively to deliver clients’ PR objectives through all stages of the litigation process, working closely with leading solicitors and counsel throughout to facilitate a joined-up strategic approach to litigations. In doing so, it supports clients’ overall legal strategies as well as ultimate communications objectives, ensuring that the bigger picture is not missed in the trenches of the litigation.
 
They work closely with key journalists, providing them with background briefings and the tools to report on the latest developments in complex and high-value commercial disputes. The team secures results quickly and relishes being brought into complex projects, including those which require lateral thinking and a long-term, strategic approach.
