We have a first class record of getting abusive material removed from the internet on behalf of our clients.
Disgruntled clients, employees and students are increasingly voicing their opinions on the internet and sometimes published content can become offensive, damaging and disruptive.
We have acted in a range of matters that have had the potential to become extremely damaging to our clients. We have usually been able to have the damaging material removed from the internet quickly and cost-effectively.
Work experience/case studies:
- Advising an independent school in London on defamatory material posted on the internet by an ex-employee. The material was quickly removed from the internet.
- Advising a restaurant owner on defamatory web forum postings. Again, the material was quickly removed from the internet.
- Advising a number of leading independent schools on defamatory material posted in internet chat rooms by pupils, and having the material removed from the internet.
- Acting for an independent school in swiftly removing an abusive website from the internet and obtaining a transfer of the domain name to our client.
