Jeremy Clarke-Williams
Spear’s Review
As a consultant in the reputation management and privacy team at Penningtons Manches Cooper, Jeremy Clarke-Williams has become a respected solicitor for claimants and defendants – everyone from politicians and business leaders to sports stars and comedians.
After more than 30 years in the throes of reputation and privacy law, Clarke-Williams stresses the importance of clear and open communication. ‘One has learned through experience that you could be a Pied Piper and lead clients into litigation quite easily, because you can persuasively tell them of all the benefits that might occur, but actually litigation should be a last resort,’ he tells Spear’s.
‘When you have a request for advice, your job is to assess the merits and prospects of the success of either the claimant or the defendant, and then provide honest advice on that.’
