Brown Rudnick Partner Charlotte Harris featured in ITV’s The Hack

London, 23 September 2025 - Brown Rudnick LLP announces that partner Charlotte Harris, co-chair of the firm's Brand & Reputation Management practice, is featured in the new ITV drama The Hack, portrayed by actor Rose Leslie, premiering Wednesday 24 September at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.

Written by BAFTA, Emmy, Olivier and Tony Award-winning dramatist Jack Thorne, The Hack is a prestigious seven-part series examining the Phone Hacking scandal and the related investigation into the murder of private investigator Daniel Morgan.

Charlotte Harris is recognised as one of the UK's leading privacy and reputation lawyers and represented individuals in landmark cases central to the uncovering of the phone hacking scandal and the development of privacy law subsequent to this. Her work is reflected in The Hack, which brings into sharp relief the importance of protecting personal privacy rights and ensuring accountability in media practice.

"Charlotte's key role in the phone hacking scandal underscores the vital role of legal advocacy in protecting fundamental rights," said Vincent J. Guglielmotti, CEO. "We are thrilled to see her recognised for her leadership in reputation and privacy law, and proud of the contribution our brand and reputation management lawyers are making in this important field."

Charlotte Harris commented: "The Hack highlights why protecting individuals' privacy matters so deeply and why holding powerful institutions to account remains essential. I am pleased to be featured in a series that revisits such a pivotal chapter in media and legal history and to be portrayed by the brilliant Rose Leslie."

The recognition of Charlotte's work comes at a time of exciting growth for Brown Rudnick's Brand & Reputation Management group. The practice has recently expanded into the Los Angeles market, reflecting the global demand for strategic advice on privacy, reputation, and crisis management. In addition, the firm welcomed leading immigration and reputation lawyer Sarah Gogan, further strengthening the group's ability to support clients in protecting their reputations across jurisdictions and industries.
