Withers Worldwide

We can claim many years of collective experience working with the media and publishing industries, and have the resources and knowledge to advise them on every aspect of their business.

Intellectual property protection and exploitation for media and publishing enterprises is a key area of strength, as are commercial contracts. We can also provide detailed advice on the often highly charged and continually developing areas of defamation, malicious falsehood and breach of privacy/confidence.  We are able to defend complaints in court, before the media regulators, mediate disputes and if necessary take free speech issues to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.

Our media clients include a range of magazine and book publishers and Internet businesses, both in the UK and internationally.
