His judgement and advice have always been impeccable.

James Heath, co-founder of Thomson Heath, is noted for his expertise in advising high net worth and leading individuals with regard to a range of defamation and privacy matters.

James is great. He is very, very thorough and very detailed. If it needs to be a 50-page witness statement, it will be. There are no shortcuts with James.

James is very calm and sensible.

Moritz Schirmeister is recommended for defamation, pre- and post-publication, and misuse of confidential information claims. He has experience of multi-jurisdictional disputes and of acting against leading national titles, online platforms, corporates and individuals.

I can't praise Moritz enough. He's always the first person I go to if there are any issues in my business.

Moritz always impresses both clients and counsel. His diligence, responsiveness and acumen make him a joy to work with. He is without doubt one of the leading lawyers in media law at his PQE.
