Bullying & Harassment
There is nothing more traumatic than being bullied and not knowing where to turn. Children’s lives are ruined, workers resign rather than putting up with workplace harassment and sometimes those who are bullied are even tragically driven to self-harm and suicide.
Griffin Law stands ready, willing and able to help those who are bullied and harassed by those who cower behind anonymity or who believe that they can bully with impunity.
In October 2009, Griffin Law obtained the first ever order anywhere in the world that provided for a court injunction to be served on an anonymous cyber bully via Twitter. This landmark precedent-setting judgment – known as a Blaney’s Blarney Order and reported worldwide – means that celebrities, sportsmen and politicians cannot be impersonated online by anonymous stalkers with impunity.
More importantly it means that children who are bullied at school, or those who are bullied because of their race, religion, sexuality, disability, age or gender, can finally discover the identity of their tormentors – and seek damages from them.
Griffin Law also made groundbreaking law reported in the media in the case of AMP v Persons Unknown in December 2011 by criminalising unlawful file sharing to protect a young girl whose phone was stolen and where private pictures on that phone were uploaded to torrent sites on the internet.
Standing up for those who cannot stand up for themselves and who do not know where to turn is at the heart of Griffin Law’s ethos. We are here to help if you or a family member or friend encounter any of the following.

We are also able to advise you in respect of your rights under the Equality Act 2010. This protects your right not to be discriminated against on grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marital status, civil partnerships, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. Those who discriminate against you – be they employers, service providers or others covered by the Equality Act 2010 – must prove that their conduct was not discriminatory. The burden of proof is reversed in your favour as complainant.
We are pleased to offer a no obligation fixed fee interview for £150.00 plus VAT (£180.00), lasting up to 30 minutes, in order to listen to your problems, analyse your case and give you some initial advice.
At this interview you will be advised of our fees and fee options encompassing discounted hourly rates, contingency fees, conditional fees, third party funding, legal expenses insurance and after-the-event insurance. We do not offer legal aid.
Please note that we are unable to give legal advice for free, nor do we give advice over the telephone or by email until you are an established client.
We are lawyers you want on your side. Wouldn’t you like the scales of justice tilted in your favour for once? If so, please contact justice@griffinlaw.co.uk.
