Medialex Guides

Medialex offers excellent and well-respected guides written by practising lawyers, which are edited and published in print/paper format by a qualified and experienced barrister. They offer a balanced and informed insight into the ramifications of English media law, with an eye on international developments.

The Guides' bias is towards impartial advice, giving an overview of the issues involved. The complications which might arise within each subject area are well illustrated through individual examples, using real case studies to bring independent scenarios alive.

While the Medialex Guides offer a wealth of information and guidance they should not be construed as legal advice. Readers should always ensure that they consult a specialist lawyer before entering into a legally binding agreement.
