Lawyer recommendations
 
Hi all

Looking for recommendations for a lawyer, friend of mine is in a bit of a pickle! Got wrangled into a social media bust up with an ex who promptly reported him to the cops! (It’s not me btw)

Any suggestions?

Ta!

try [email protected] or radha @ radhastirling dot com (some reason it won't let me type it)

She's worked with that Brit woman in Abu Dhabi who allegedly called her ex's new wife a horse and a few others that have got into a bit of a pickle on sm.

Twitter is partially owned by a Saudi Sheikh (Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Alsaud). We always knew that one day they would close down her accounts if she annoyed the Middle East dictatorships enough. Radha has been defending human rights victims in the UAE for 12 years. For example, rape victims who were jailed themselves when they tried to report it (for sex outside marriage). This is a country who has the death penalty for homosexuality, and atheism, The thing about Radha is that the only negative media she has ever had is inside the UAE, which is ruled by an unelected dictator, and his staff control the media. A UAE "journalist" can be jailed or executed for writing anything against the UAE narrative, so of course they will be anti Detained in Dubai. However it doesn't take more than a few seconds on Google to see the high esteem she is held in by the world's respected media (BBC, CNN, The Guardian...) Radha has done thousands of interviews in the last 12 years, saved countless lives and works with governments around the world to save victims of the UAE

Saw that too. The article's language is brutal.

I've no idea if they do any real good, the way they're written about in those articles dispels the myth that they're connected in anyway to decision makers here and can actually influence decisions.
