Harassment and breach of privacy claimsSolicitors here advise on and conduct claims arising from harassment at work and discrimination on the grounds of sex, race, disability and age. Our solicitors undertake unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal and all other employment tribunal claims. Beyond the workplace, breach of privacy claims have recently become much more common by virtue of recent judge-made extensions to English law, leading on from the Michael Douglas v Hello Magazine and Naomi Campbell judgments, through to the Max Mosley and Madonna proceedings.
Unauthorised use of personal material is now actionable in many circumstances, for example publication of unauthorised personal photographs or the secret taping of private conversations.
Infringement of privacy has become a fully-fledged right of action to stand alongside proceedings for copyright infringement, libel and misuse of confidential information in the armoury of the claimant the victim of personal harassment.
"Many thanks for all your help in this matter and thank you in particular for your manner throughout what has been a difficult time for me. Your professionalism and understanding have been a great support."
