Client quote - Chambers 2018 - Defamation

“I am extremely grateful to Amanda Burge, Laura Daly and all the Hamlins team headed by Chris Hutchings. Hamlins did an excellent job in fighting both my cases and I am absolutely delighted with the results. I would highly recommend them to anyone who believes they may be a victim of phone hacking.

I am a sports agent and represent very high-profile sports players. I was extremely shocked to learn I was a victim of phone-hacking but it is now clear the newspapers targeted me because of my job and close relationship with the sports players I represented. Articles which were published containing either commercial or personal client information inevitably increased pressure on my relationships with the talent I represented. Hamlins forensic and highly skilled team quickly identified the extent of both the hacking I was subjected to and details of the how this impacted negatively on key and long-standing clients relationships. With Hamlins’ professional guidance, I was able to achieve an outcome against 2 newspaper groups which far exceeded my expectations.”

Simon Bayliff, Sports Agent

“Powerful litigation practice at the forefront of much of the activity concerning the phone hacking prosecutions”

Chambers 2018 - Defamation

“The team at Hamlins could not have handled my claim any better. At every stage I felt supported and informed and the result went far beyond my expectations. I could not recommend them enough.”
