We are concerned about ex-employees leaking confidential information, what can we do?
=====================================================================================

Bad leavers can present a real threat to a company's reputation if they have access to confidential information that they could leak, or material for blackmail.

Nevertheless, it is possible to take legal action to avoid potential fallout. Information leaks can fall within the remit of data protection law and the law of confidence. You can also protect yourself by enforcing existing contractual terms by, for example, securing emergency injunctions.

When bad leavers or disgruntled ex-employees are threatening to publish confidential information or damaging allegations, it is vital to act quickly. When appropriate, this may involve seeking an injunction.

Your care throughout was amazing.

Christina Wolff



They were magnificent, in both practical and emotional terms, during what was a very upsetting and difficult period of my life. The advice given was always well considered and sound. In summary, do not think twice about engaging...  this firm, they have been nothing short of brilliant, and in my opinion you will not find better.

Nicole Barnes



I would like to say working with the staff at Vardags was a great support to me at a difficult time of my life but with their support and sensitivity I was able to get through the experience with less stress and ease. If anyone...  is looking for a good legal team I would recommend Vardags. They may cost a bit more but will give you good service.

Brenda Hart



Thanks to Emma and the team for the outstanding handling of my case. Throughout the months of my ongoing case I was kept informed and updated at all times never left wondering what was happening or where I stood. From meeting...  Emma I felt instantly that my case was in good (understatement) hands, she has a friendly personal approach as well as so much expertise in the handling of family law cases. I feel so grateful to have had Emma and her team handle my case and for the outcome! Thank you!

Emily Calvin



I feel safer and not alone, knowing that I have Nicola's support - securing her to act for me was a huge weight lifted. No matter what the result, I am confident that she will have secured the best outcome possible.

I had the pleasure of working with Tatiana Amdur during a very challenging time in my life, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From our first consultation, Tatiana displayed a remarkable blend of professionalism, empathy,...  and expertise. She took the time to understand the intricacies of my case and provided clear, actionable advice that was always in my best interest.
