Should reference to the Libel Reform Campaign be made here?
The Libel Reform Campaign
[1] is directly concerned with the Libel laws in the UK and the proliferation of
Libel tourism of which Carter-Ruck take their own share of the market.
Libel tourism is not in it's self wrong but has significant impact on the freedom of speech in the UK and the rest of the world. So much so the that in the USA The Speech Act of 2010 passed to protect citizens from the UK courts.

I am an employee of Carter-Ruck and I wish to propose the follow updates and additions. I am aware of Wikipedia’s policies concerning conflict of interest editing, and I therefore ask that an editor please review the proposed updates.
Information Box
The firm’s key areas of practice are not specified in the information box, but I believe this is relevant information for the purpose of this section. I propose that the information box is updated to state that the firm’s “Main practice areas” are “Media Law, International Law, Commercial Disputes”.
I suggest that the “Date Founded” of “1982” is also added to the information box.
Introductory paragraphs
In the first paragraph of the article, I believe the reference to “commercial disputes” is relatively unspecific. This could encompass an extremely wide range of cases, and I believe that some clarification of the main types of commercial disputes in which the firm acts is warranted. I propose that this sentence is therefore expanded to state - “…and commercial disputes, including banking litigation, professional negligence and arbitration.” [2]
In the next two paragraphs, the references to the legal directories are no longer current, and I believe should be updated to reflect the relevant directory entries as they currently stand. I propose that the second and third paragraphs of the introductory paragraphs are therefore amended to read as follows-
Background
Given in particular the proposed update to the information box (above), I believe the Background section is redundant and I suggest that it is removed completely.
Notable clients and cases
Darragh MacAnthony
If Carter-Ruck wishes to update some notable client cases they should also include cases like Darragh MacAnthony (Peterborough FC Owner) where they acted as UK agent for his property empire, against EU and UK consumer law, to frighten victims of his former MRI property empire by threatening high court action for publicly complaining about being conned out of money..... See the MRI Support Group site they tried to bring down. See the Spanish Lawyer battling to bring MacAnthony to book. Discuss......
The notable clients and cases section does not appear to have been updated substantively in a number of years, and it does not properly reflect the firm’s recent, current or most notable clients as it suggests. I therefore propose that the opening paragraph of this section is updated to read:
Furthermore I also propose that the following additional subheadings – which reflect some of the firm’s current, recent and most prominent clients – are then added immediately below the introductory paragraph in this section. I have included references where possible to third party news websites in relation to these proposed additions:

Response - a few comments. . .
Introductory paragraphs
Any unsolicited testimonials should be removed from this section and moved to a new "Praise" section just above the "Criticism" section.
Background
The Background section is not redundant and needs to be expanded with more detail about the history of the firm.
Notable clients and cases
Has to be balanced - failures as well as successes.
