Paul Tweed

Paul Tweed (born 1955) born in Northern Ireland, is an international lawyer with offices in Belfast, Dublin and London. He is listed in Chambers Legal Guide as a leading lawyer in the field of Defamation and Reputation Management. He is described by Chambers as "synonymous with this type of work" and as a “real legend in this field and a name that everyone knows”. He has been described as one of the most feared defamation lawyers in the world, having represented the likes of Harrison Ford, Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Lopez, Liam Neeson, Britney Spears, Ashton Kutcher, and Uri Geller as well as many others from the worlds of politics, music, film, entertainment and sport.

Having made his name taking action against traditional media outlets, he has since sought to challenge the largely unfettered power of the social media giants, calling for increased regulation of these corporations, many of which have their European headquarters in Ireland. Provided by Wikipedia
