Practice Areas

Julian’s reputation management practice is very highly-regarded and benefits from his specialist expertise in the sports sector, where he acts for a host of national governing bodies, household name clubs and high-profile sports men and women.

Julian advises individuals, corporate institutions and charities across a range of industry sectors on all aspects of reputation management. Working almost exclusively with claimants, he acts for individuals and organisations that find themselves the subject of unwanted attention, whether from mainstream, online or broadcast media, or in some instances, obsessed or campaigning individuals.

Whether responding to cyber breaches or tracking data that has been dispersed electronically, there is a digital element to much of Julian’s work and he works closely alongside cyber monitoring and computer forensic experts to ensure a successful outcome for his clients. With more than twenty-five years’ experience in the field, Julian takes a holistic and proactive view to securing his clients' long-term interests and works in tandem with them to agree the right strategy. Where necessary, he connects clients with his formidable network of specialist public relations and media advisers.
