Barristers at 5RB have a wealth of experience advising on pre-publication matters for print, broadcast and social media.
Our focus will always be on maximising your creative ambitions whilst minimising legal and regulatory risk. We can advise on libel, contempt, misuse of private information, copyright and data protection issues, as well as other legal and regulatory matters.
We have established a strong reputation for expertise in this field and regularly advise leading newspaper publishers, broadcasters, PR agencies, advertisers, publishing houses and journalists. Our expertise spans all genres of work, including fiction and non-fiction, book, TV and film manuscripts, advertising and marketing materials, and investigative journalism. Members of chambers also provide companies and distributors with ‘sign-off’ on Errors & Omissions policies for insurance purposes and can advise in respect of complaints.
Our barristers are available to draft detailed written submissions to regulators, including IPSO, Ofcom, ASA, and the BBFC, and to attend regulatory hearings. We can also advise on notices and information to be released by companies and public bodies.
