    Accessibility Statement

    Last updated: February 2026

    Our Commitment

    Defamation Guard Law Firm is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We strive to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, as well as our obligations under the Equality Act 2010.

    Conformance Status

    We aim to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. This means that our website should be perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for all users, including those who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnification software, and alternative input devices.

    Measures We Take

    To ensure accessibility, we take the following measures:

    • Use semantic HTML to provide clear document structure
    • Provide descriptive alt text for all meaningful images
    • Ensure sufficient colour contrast throughout the site
    • Provide keyboard navigation for all interactive elements
    • Use ARIA labels and roles where appropriate
    • Ensure forms have properly associated labels
    • Maintain a logical heading hierarchy
    • Provide focus indicators for keyboard users

    Known Limitations

    While we strive for full accessibility, there may be some areas of our website that are not yet fully accessible. Known limitations include:

    • Some third-party embedded content (e.g. Cloudflare Turnstile CAPTCHA) may have limited accessibility features
    • Some older PDF documents may not be fully screen-reader compatible — contact us for an accessible alternative

    We are actively working to address these limitations and improve accessibility across all areas of our website.

    Feedback and Reporting Issues

    We welcome feedback on the accessibility of our website. If you encounter any barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us:

    • Email: help@defamationguardlaw.com
    • Subject line: Accessibility Feedback
    • Post: Accessibility Officer, Defamation Guard Law Firm, 30 St Mary Axe, London EC3A 8BF

    We aim to respond to accessibility feedback within five business days and to resolve reported issues within a reasonable timeframe.

    Enforcement Procedure

    If you are not satisfied with our response to your accessibility concern, you may contact the Equality Advisory Support Service (EASS), which provides advice and support on equality and human rights issues in England, Scotland, and Wales.

    The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the public sector accessibility regulations, which may also apply to organisations providing legal services.
