Specialist legal PR agency Maltin PR has welcomed former BBC legal affairs correspondent Clive Coleman to the team as a consultant.

A barrister turned journalist, Clive spent 16 years with the BBC, reporting on high-profile domestic and international legal stories and issues. In 2019, he won the Bar Council Legal Broadcasting Award for his coverage of the UK Supreme Court prorogation case. Prior to becoming the BBC’s legal affairs correspondent, Clive presented Radio 4’s flagship legal analysis programme Law In Action.

In his new role with Maltin PR, Clive will be working with the team to advise clients on a range of specialist legal PR, litigation PR and broadcast matters, including media training.

Commenting on his appointment, Clive said: ‘I am delighted to be taking up a consultancy role with the award-winning team at Maltin PR. I hope that my years in broadcast and print media will add to the already considerable expertise the firm offers its raft of clients.’

‘I have always believed those in the fast moving world of the law and legal services need clear, informed and insightful PR advice, and effective communications strategies. I am really looking forward to working with Tim and the team at Maltin PR.’

Maltin PR founder and chief executive, Tim Maltin, commented: ‘I have known Clive for some years and am delighted that he has agreed to join our team as a consultant. His media training is inspiring and his knowledge of how fast-moving legal stories play out in broadcast media is an invaluable asset to the Firm. Clive’s qualifications as a barrister and broadcaster, as well as a legal news expert, make him the perfect fit for Maltin.’
