Gatley on Libel and Slander, now in its thirteenth edition and part of the distinguished Common Law Library, has established itself as the standard treatise on defamation law and practise.

The book has been completely updated and reorganised to provide a full treatment of the English law of defamation and other media and communications claims, including intentional untruth, privacy, data protection, and harassment - both substantively and procedurally.

New chapters on substantial injury and the defences of truth, honest opinion, and public interest publication

The chapter on pre-trial petitions has been completely updated, including preliminary trials of meaning.
There are separate chapters on the misuse of private information and data protection.
All major case law, including Lachaux, Stocker, Serafin, Lloyd v Google, Economou, Wright v Ver, Wright v Granath, Corbyn v Millett, Duchess of Sussex v Associated, and Soriano v Forensic News, is reviewed.
Taking into account legal changes in Commonwealth and common law jurisdictions

Gatley on Libel and Slander provides thorough guidance on the procedural aspects of bringing an action, in addition to detailed commentary and expert analysis of the substantive law. This advice is supplemented with sample forms and precedents for issuing procedures, as well as summaries of major damages awards, making it a practical as well as authoritative reference.

Detailed coverage of the appropriate process for practising defamation law, which may be used as a one-stop reference at each stage of a case.
