Mellicks is one of the most reputable media law firms in Scotland. We have over 40 years’ experience working with Scotland’s best-selling daily newspaper, providing 24/7 legal cover and advice relating to news gathering and publication. This includes both pre- and post-publication advice on issues including defamation, contempt, privacy, data protection and regulatory compliance on a story-­by-story basis. We also offer pre- and post- broadcast advice on podcasts. The majority of our work entails providing pre-publication advice but we also represent our clients in any litigation which may arises post-publication.

In addition to our newspaper clients, we also act on behalf of publishing houses, offering pre-publication advice on proposed book titles.

We are regularly instructed by claimants in defamation and privacy claims. We also provide advice to clients in respect of reputation management issues, including complaints to IPSO and issues arising out of the use of social media or content posted thereon.

If cases do require to go to court, we have a team of litigation solicitors who regularly appear throughout the courts of Scotland and we have well-established relationships with the most experienced media law KCs and advocates, which ensures our clients always have the very best representation in every respect. Our litigation has formed the basis for establishing numerous legal authorities, both within Scotland but also in the UK as a whole.
