Why Law Firms Are Working with PR Experts to Help Clients Through Legal Crises

Legal matters don’t just stay in the courtroom anymore. One article, one post, one comment online — and suddenly your client is at the centre of public attention. Even when the legal case is under control, their reputation can take a hit that lasts long after the verdict.

That’s where we come in.

At Reconnect PR, we partner with law firms to give their clients expert support when the spotlight hits — helping manage media, protect reputations and rebuild public trust.

When Legal Issues Go Public, Clients Need More Than Legal Advice

If you’ve ever had a client:

  • Named in the media during a dispute
  • Attacked online or on social media
  • Facing criminal charges or police investigation
  • Involved in an unfair dismissal or family law matter
  • Dealing with defamation or regulatory pressure 

…then you’ve seen how quickly a private issue can become public.

While you focus on the legal side, we help clients manage what people see, hear and think about them. It’s not just about spin — it’s about giving people the confidence to move forward with their name and reputation intact.

How We Support Your Clients — and You

Our role is simple: we help your client stay calm, confident and clear under pressure.

That means:

  • Dealing with the media so they don’t have to
  • Creating holding statements and key messages that won’t compromise their case
  • Monitoring online chatter and helping them respond (or stay silent) wisely
  • Rebuilding reputation after the matter is resolved — through content, media coverage or brand repair 

Everything we do is aligned with your legal advice. We don’t overstep — we complement.
