In an increasingly fragmented and volatile digital age, it’s never been harder for high-net-worth individuals (HNWs) to protect their privacy rights and guard their reputations against untruths. And, as the UK continues to face rising inflation and widening inequality, many in the public eye are worried about how their wealth is perceived.

For high-net-worth individuals (HNWs), reputation and privacy are valuable assets. When they are placed under threat — whether by the press, individuals on social media or other actors — the right lawyer can be indispensable.

Our team are experts in the law relating defamation, privacy, data protection and harassment and help protect clients from the numerous circumstances that can cause damage to an individual’s reputation, advising on the best strategy and course of action. They engage with potential publishers before publication, to ensure accuracy and that legal rights are properly considered, but also assist clients in disputes and crisis, where reputation is a key consideration.  The team have been involved in some of the most eye-catching and important cases.

The Spear’s rankings are drawn up on the basis of nominations by legal peers and opposite numbers in reputation management, telephone and face-to-face interviews, data supplied by law firms, as well as information gathered by the Spear’s editorial and research teams. The Index includes practitioners who operate in jurisdictions around the world and forms the core of the Spear’s 500, the bible of HNW advisers which showcases the best private client advisors, wealth managers, lawyers and service providers to the high net worth sphere.
