Private clients' legal advice and support

At Cohen Davis, we bring our expertise in Internet Law to a diverse range of private client services, maintaining the same unwavering dedication, skill, and discretion. Our team approaches personal legal matters with care and professionalism, delivering bespoke solutions tailored to each client’s needs.

Our private clients' services

For footballers and other sports professionals, we offer a comprehensive service that extends beyond reputation management. Our team drafts wills handles family law matters, and resolves disputes—whether they are private, involve clubs, or pertain to claims such as breach of contract or unfair dismissal. With expertise in litigation, we support clients through every legal challenge, always prioritising discretion to safeguard their privacy and interests.

Clients in the entertainment industry rely on us for a holistic approach to their legal needs. We protect copyrights, negotiate commercial contracts, and resolve disputes with business partners or band members. Additionally, we manage personal affairs, including family law matters, drafting wills, and handling sensitive litigation.

Our private client work often involves complex, cross-border, and international disputes. Whether navigating challenging legal frameworks or representing clients in high-stakes matters, we provide a seamless and confidential service tailored to their unique needs.

Disputes and litigation

Disputes can arise unexpectedly, even in the most carefully managed personal or professional affairs. At the Internet Law Centre, we represent private clients in a wide range of disputes, offering robust, strategic, and tailored legal support. Whether the issue involves private matters, contractual disagreements, or financial disputes, we focus on achieving the best possible outcome while protecting our clients’ reputation and interests.

For private clients, including high-profile individuals such as athletes and entertainment professionals, disputes often require sensitive handling to safeguard their public and private standing. We provide clear, pragmatic advice to resolve matters amicably whenever possible, recognising that prolonged litigation can be both costly and disruptive.

When litigation is necessary, we act decisively, fighting hard for our clients. We approach each case with meticulous preparation, focusing on achieving the outcomes our clients want. Success goes beyond winning in court—it is about delivering resolutions that align with their objectives, whether protecting assets, resolving disputes, or safeguarding their reputation.

We excel in managing complex, cross-border disputes, leveraging expertise to navigate international legal frameworks. With discretion and tenacity, we handle even the most challenging conflicts with the care and attention our clients expect, always prioritising their best interests.

At the Internet Law Centre, we are committed to providing private clients with exceptional representation, delivering results that reflect their priorities and ensuring peace of mind throughout the process.

Trust, discretion and reputation

Our private client services are founded on trust, discretion, and a deep understanding of our clients and their circumstances. We take the time to know our clients personally, ensuring our advice reflects their unique needs and priorities. With extensive experience across various personal legal matters, we provide guidance that prioritises preserving and enhancing our clients’ reputations.

Our approach to litigation mirrors this philosophy. We understand that disputes, whether personal or professional, can have far-reaching implications. That’s why we approach every case with a strategic mindset, prioritising the client’s best interests and maintaining discretion at every stage. Whether representing sports professionals, entertainment figures, or high-net-worth individuals, we manage each case with care, ensuring that outcomes align with both immediate and long-term goals.

When it comes to wills and estate planning, we recognise the deeply personal nature of these decisions. Our team ensures that the client’s wishes are at the forefront, helping them pass on assets in a way that respects their values and intentions while maintaining the highest levels of privacy. Every plan is tailored, ensuring it aligns with their legacy and protects their loved ones.

Family law disputes

Family law disputes often stem from challenging and deeply personal circumstances, such as indiscretions, difficult breakups, or other sensitive situations. At the Internet Law Centre, we approach these matters with sensitivity, offering pragmatic advice and steadfast support while prioritising our clients' well-being and reputation.

Whenever possible, we aim to resolve family matters amicably, understanding that disputes such as divorce, financial disagreements, or custody issues are rarely in our clients' best interests to litigate publicly. Our focus is on achieving practical and dignified solutions that protect our clients’ personal and professional standings.

However, when disputes escalate to court, we fight vigorously for our clients. Our approach to litigation is defined by dedication, expertise, and an unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. While winning in the traditional sense is always a priority, we also recognise that success is about delivering resolutions that align with our clients’ goals. Whether this involves protecting family relationships, securing financial stability, or safeguarding discretion, we relentlessly pursue results that serve their interests both in and out of the courtroom.

With a team that balances sensitivity with tenacity, we ensure our clients feel supported throughout every step of the process. No matter how complex or delicate the situation, our commitment is always to achieve outcomes that reflect our clients’ best interests.

Power of attorney

A Power of Attorney is an essential legal tool, particularly for clients caring for elderly parents or family members. It authorises trusted individuals to manage financial, medical, or personal affairs if a loved one becomes unable to do so due to illness, age, or unforeseen circumstances.

At Cohen Davis, we guide our clients through the process of establishing a Power of Attorney with clarity and precision. This is another area that requires good, sensible, and common-sense advice, combined with a deep understanding of our clients’ wishes and needs. We ensure that the legal framework is tailored to their specific circumstances, providing peace of mind that their loved ones’ affairs will be managed effectively and with the utmost care.

As required, we travel to meet our clients wherever they are in the country, ensuring the process is as seamless as possible. We also visit their parents or family members to take instructions directly and carry out the necessary legal work efficiently. This personalised approach allows us to address their needs promptly while respecting their time and commitments.

With the right legal tools in place and the guidance of a trusted lawyer, our clients can get on with what they do best, knowing that their loved ones and legal affairs are in safe hands. A Power of Attorney is more than just a legal document—it’s a way of ensuring thoughtful support, security, and stability for the future.

Criminal investigations and police station representation 

We provide expert legal support for clients facing criminal investigations, serving as the first point of contact for immediate and strategic assistance. Our lawyers bring over 25 years of experience in police station representation and are fully accredited, ensuring clients receive the highest standard of care and advice from the outset.

Our team brings a unique combination of experience, blending their deep understanding of criminal defence with their specialism in free speech, social media, and internet law. This makes us particularly well-equipped to handle cases involving online activity, reputational risks, and the complex interplay between criminal law and the digital world.

From the moment we provide initial legal advice, we think ahead, not only addressing the immediate situation but also considering the broader implications for our clients’ reputations and careers. Our approach is meticulous and proactive, ensuring that every decision and action is taken with the client’s long-term interests in mind.

Whether attending police interviews, advising on investigations, or managing proceedings, we handle these matters with the utmost care and discretion. Protecting our clients’ reputations is paramount, and we work tirelessly to navigate these situations in a way that minimises disruption to their personal and professional lives.
