Reputation
- We were retained by a highly regarded UK Top 100 law firm to manage communications surrounding their advisory role in a high-profile dispute between residents of a development and a well-known heritage organisation. The case spanned three years and escalated from the High Court to the Supreme Court, which ultimately ruled in favour of our client this year.
Counsel:
- Given the complexities and high-profile nature of the case, we advised on litigation communications at each stage. Our strategy was to ensure that both the firm and the lead partner were prominently featured in media coverage, elucidating the intricacies of the case and highlighting their successful advisory role.We focused on relationship-building with key journalists in the legal and mainstream press, preparing the lead partner for interviews and crafting statements that would resonate with a broad audience. This approach ensured that the firm’s expertise and the nuances of the case were accurately and effectively communicated.
Supporting:
- Our efforts culminated in the placement of comments from the lead partner in top-tier national and international media outlets upon the handing down of the judgment. This included The Telegraph, BBC News, Reuters, Financial Times, The Guardian, Evening Standard, Bloomberg, Mail Online, and Sky News. The firm dominated the news agenda for the day, reinforcing its reputation as a leading advisor in high-stakes disputes.
