Reputation Management

The phenomenal uptake of social network sites and the increase in online media outlets has resulted in news spreading even faster. It is therefore more important than ever for Sheridans' Reputation Management Group to provide immediate, bespoke advice to clients.

Sheridans' Reputation Management Group understands and recognises the value of reputation and the damage that can be caused by unjustified or unwanted media attention.

The group's experts have extensive experience of the media and publishing industries which enables them to provide robust advice in time sensitive situations. Increasingly, the team also provides swift specialist advice in relation to internet publications and electronic communications, including postings on social media sites, websites and blogs.

Clients include high profile figures, celebrities, businesses, brands and regulatory bodies to whom advice is provided in relation to all aspects of reputation management and media coverage.

Advice and representation is provided, both before and after publication, in respect of claims in defamation, breach of confidence, misuse of private information, malicious falsehood, data protection and any other situations involving the media (including new media) which have the potential to affect adversely the reputation of our clients.

The group endeavours to provide advice which is both practical and cost effective. They appreciate the personal or commercial sensitivities that frequently accompany media intrusion and the importance of achieving a prompt resolution to reduce the risk of further harm without the need for expensive, protracted litigation.
