Corporate reputations are more vulnerable than ever. Regulatory scrutiny, social media and high stakeholder expectations mean that risks can escalate quickly. If left unaddressed, they can threaten brand trust, financial performance and leadership credibility.
When a reputational challenge arises—whether it's employee misconduct, a regulatory breach or a supply chain failure impacting operational resilience—businesses have to act fast. There’s no time to assemble multiple teams or place additional strain on already stretched employees. They need a coordinated response from experts who can manage the situation holistically and efficiently.
This is a market-leading corporate reputation solution led by BCLP, drawing on the vast experience of our lawyers and the experts at Byfield, FTI Consulting and KPMG. Together, we provide a unique, integrated approach to reputation management, combining legal expertise, PR strategy and forensic support. Unlike traditional advisory models, Protect is a multidisciplinary solution that gives businesses cohesive, strategic guidance in the moments that matter.
Senior business leaders gain the clarity and confidence they need to prepare for, respond to and rebuild from reputational challenges—so they can move forward with purpose.
Your reputation, our priority.
Protect is a one-stop shop for corporate reputation protection services, delivered by an expert team of lawyers, PR advisors and forensic accountants. Although we can step in at any stage of a reputational challenge, our approach is focused on three strategic phases: prepare, respond and rebuild.
Prepare
Today’s interconnected landscape means crises are inevitable—so reputation management shouldn’t start when things go wrong. Leadership teams have a critical opportunity to identify vulnerabilities and strengthen their position in preparation for a threat. Through reputation safeguarding assessments, crisis simulation exercises and C-suite coaching programmes, we equip businesses with the intelligence and resilience they need to mitigate risks before they escalate.
Respond
When a reputational challenge hits, we mobilise a multi-disciplinary team to take swift, strategic action that blends legal expertise with proactive communications. Instead of disjointed, conflicting advice from multiple firms, you’ll receive seamless, coordinated support from experts renowned across industries for solving complex reputational problems. From managing media scrutiny to conducting internal investigations and navigating regulatory inquiries, we seamlessly coordinate our response to minimise damage and maintain business continuity.
Rebuild
When it comes to recovery, we don’t stop at crisis resolution. Clients benefit from our full support in rebuilding their reputation and regaining stakeholder trust. From leadership mentoring to strategic communications and operational improvements, our services are carefully designed to help businesses rebuild stronger. In doing so, we embed a mindset of long-term resilience that helps businesses navigate future challenges with confidence.
“In response to growing client demand for a comprehensive approach to complex crises, Protect is uniquely designed to streamline reputation management. Businesses don't have time to stand up multiple teams when a crisis hits, so this unified solution, bringing together experienced experts with legal, PR, and forensic expertise, is precisely what they need to respond effectively without the burden of managing separate advisors."
