Description

Data Protection Litigation in the UK: An Introduction is a practical guide to the fast-evolving field of privacy litigation. With the rise of data breaches, misuse of personal information, and complex regulatory frameworks, UK courts are increasingly handling high-stakes privacy cases. This book provides a clear and structured overview of the main types of litigation arising under UK data protection law.

It covers five key areas:

- An overview of UK data litigation and its legal foundations
- DSARs and individual data rights
- Security breaches and compensation claims
- Privacy and misuse of private information cases
- Data transfer disputes and lawful basis challenges

Each chapter examines landmark cases, identifies key legal issues, and offers practical tips for litigators, in-house counsel, and compliance professionals.

The book is designed to help readers understand not just the law, but how it is applied in practice-what arguments succeed, what pitfalls to avoid, and how to prepare for litigation.

Whether you're advising clients, managing risk, or responding to claims, this book is useful.

This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Intellectual Property and IT online service.
