Micha-Rose Emmett CEO Tel: +44 (0) 207 318 4343 info@csglobalpartners.com www.csglobalpartners.com
CS Global Partners is an international, award-winning, industry-leading, legal consultancy firm specialising in citizenship and residence solutions. Headquartered in the heart of London with ten offices worldwide, CS Global Partners offers tailored, strategic advice to both the clients and the countries it represents. Driving economic prosperity and transforming lives in the process, CS Global Partners transcends the traditional investment immigration industry framework, supporting the governments of Dominica, Saint Lucia and St Kitts and Nevis to promote their CBI programmes. In doing so, CS Global Partners leads by example, providing investors and governments alike with unparalleled, intelligent citizenship solutions. As we witness unprecedented global uncertainty, the need to diversify one’s residency and citizenship has become necessary to guarantee one’s physical safety, financial security, as well as lifestyle and
accessibility, especially when it comes to the future of one’s family. Looking for business opportunities on a global scale, rather than a regional one, is no longer just desirable – it is inevitable. Demand is being driven by an increasingly globalised business market, and economic or political instability means that a typical client is looking for safety and security, both from a personal and professional perspective. The investor migration industry has followed suit, with nations around the world foreseeing this as a strong method to drive further investment. The Caribbean is a strong example of how nations can benefit from such enabling economic citizenship. The team at CS Global Partners has extensive experience in the field of immigration, citizenship, and residence. We are composed of professionals from all over the world, with many of us having lived in multiple countries across the globe. In this sense, we have firsthand knowledge of how important, worrying, and sometimes emotionally taxing a second citizenship or residence decision may be for an
individual and his or her family. Our goal is thus to make this decision easy and to provide a smooth process and a constant guiding hand to our clients throughout their second citizenship or residence application. Led by a dual-qualified attorney with years of practice in citizenship and residence by investment, the CS Global Partners team is highly international, multicultural, and multilingual. We are fluent in more than 11 languages, including the Romance languages – French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish – and German, Russian, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese, Hindi, Punjabi, and Afrikaans. At CS Global Partners, we pride ourselves with a client-focused approach, meaning that we will advise applicants on which programme is best suited for their specific needs. We are very proud of the standards we uphold and our 99% approval rate of applications speaks for itself. Visit the official website – www.csglobalpartners.com – for more information.
PRIVACY LAW FIRM OF THE YEAR IN ENGLAND Mr Daniel Taylor Partner
Taylor Hampton Solicitors Ltd
Tel: +44 0207 427 5970 daniel.taylor@taylorhampton.co.uk www.taylorhampton.co.uk
Taylor Hampton is recognised as a leader in defamation, privacy, phone hacking and internet litigation. Cases in which the firm has acted led to the closure of the News of the World and the establishment of the Leveson inquiry. In addition to its media practice, the firm is also a specialist in commercial disputes, immigration and family law (including international cases). At a time where more material than ever is being shared and published online and the press and paparazzi culture shows no sign of abating, it is becoming increasingly difficult for individuals to protect their own private and confidential information and that of their family from being made public. Victims of privacy invasions have described how this practice made them feel violated and exposed after intimate details of their lives have been made public. The law recognises that misusing private information about an individual is wrong, and we have frequently taken action to stop it. Daniel Taylor is one of the most experienced lawyers in the business and specialises in all aspects of media law including libel, privacy,

internet law and confidentiality. A number of the cases he has been involved in have led to changes in the law governing the media. He is also a highly experienced commercial litigator. Daniel has acted for both Claimants and Defendants in numerous high-profile actions. This means he understands the media industry, the way journalists think and operate and what is acceptable and not acceptable to print or publish. He also has a thorough understanding of the internet and social media. Daniel’s work includes landmark cases which have changed the law. One of his cases led to the important test of “substantial damage to reputation” being required in order to found a libel action. This subsequently contributed to the enactment of the serious harm test in the Defamation Act 2013. Daniel is a leading practitioner in the realm of privacy and was a pioneer in the phone hacking litigation. He was involved in the firm’s successful actions against News International which were pivotal to the closure of the News of the World. More recently, the firm represented several claimants in the landmark
case of Gulati v Mirror Group Newspapers where record damages were awarded against Mirror Group. Daniel has represented household names in their actions against the media, including actors, TV presenters and sportsmen. In his capacity of acting for Defendant publications, Daniel has also fought actions involving the Royal Family, Hollywood and TV actors, and international footballers. Daniel also has many years of experience in dealing with pre-publication issues and the law of contempt, having been involved in copy clearance in relation to groundbreaking and agenda-setting stories. He defended the media in the two most serious contempt of court cases to face newspapers in the last 50 years. He has wide experience in acting on a range of commercial disputes including contract claims, property-related disputes and employment matters.
