Summary

Media lawyer Louis Charalambous represented victims of some of worst lapses in press standards during the 2000s. He went on to represent newspapers in libel battles against a violent gangster, 'wife beating' Hollywood star and others. He says press standards have improved, times are hard for both claimants and publishers and explains why Prince Harry's colossal privacy claim against Associated Newspapers is looking a bit iffy.
