Privacy injunction solicitor

How to obtain a privacy injunction.

If you need to obtain a privacy injunction quickly, we will certainly be able to help. Cohen Davis solicitors regularly obtain privacy injunctions in cases and circumstances where a privacy injunction has never been granted before. We have acted in a number of landmark cases as solicitors for the claimant where our clients obtained privacy injunctions which aimed to protect them and members of their family from unwanted publicity. Many of these privacy injunctions relate to publications on the internet and often they are granted together with an anonymity order to protect the identity of our client.

Blackmail injunctions

Same-day emergency blackmail injunctions

In recent years, there has been a growing trend of sex-related blackmail, mostly, but not only, of men who try to meet a companion online. This disturbing practice involves the use of sexually explicit material or of information of private nature, often obtained through consensual relationships, to extort money or other favours from the victim.
