Use this section by event, accusation or role
Confidential defence and victim representation in sexual-offence and intimate-image cases, with careful attention to consent, safeguarding, medical evidence, digital evidence and privacy.
A sensitive allegation is reported or disclosed after an incident, relationship or online interaction and the accounts, consent, timing, communications and forensic material require independent examination. The correct legal route depends on the documents, the participant's procedural status, the investigating authority and the current stage—not simply the label attached to the accusation.
Our organising principles
Protect safety, dignity, confidentiality and the presumption of innocence
Separate each alleged act, participant and legal element
Preserve messages, location data and medical or digital material
Avoid direct contact, public commentary or informal evidence gathering
