Representing defendants in
freedom of expression cases.
David Price KC
Solicitor Advocate
I am a Solicitor Advocate specialising in defending freedom of expression cases.
I act for a wide variety of clients from large media organisations to ordinary members of the public. The common feature is that they face litigation as a result of something that they have written or spoken. The right decisions need to be made and implemented as soon as possible. I bring my experience and expertise to the difficult issues facing defendants in a challenging and constantly evolving legal environment.
I have been involved in numerous landmark and high-profile cases. You can find legal submissions from some of these cases here. I have represented the defendants in the three most recent defamation cases in the Supreme Court.
I am the only lawyer in this area who is a solicitor, advocate and KC. I can take instructions directly from a client or work with other solicitors and lawyers outside the UK. I will act on a conditional (“no win – no fee”) basis for individuals, NGOs and small businesses in an appropriate case.
