Online Safety Act 2023

The Online Safety Act 2023 does not directly regulate law firms but requires they ensure their own online presence is safe by taking responsibility for content on their websites, similar to other online service providers. As a law firm we regularly assess and manage risks of any potential harmful content, adhere to Ofcom’s codes of practice, implement user reporting mechanisms, and update our content. 

We:

  • Conduct Risk Assessments to dentify and evaluate potential risks of harmful content on our site. 
  • Implement Safety Duties: Take steps to mitigate any risks, including removing offending content and preventing users from encountering it. 
  • Update Terms and Conditions: Explain their approach to content moderation and user safety within this public statement. 
  • Provide Reporting Mechanisms: Allow users to report offending content and submit complaints. 
  • Document Compliance: Maintain written records of how we are meeting our duties under the Act. 

If you wish to report any content or make a complaint about content please contact us
