Taylor Wessing has represented Slovakia's President Zuzana Caputova in a libel dispute with Member of Parliament Lubos Blaha.

According to the firm, the Bratislava I District Court ordered Blaha, who is a member of the Direction – Slovak Social Democracy party, to stop spreading claims that Caputova is a traitor, an agent of foreign countries, or a puppet of the United States and remove such statements from several posts on his social network platforms.

The Taylor Wessing team representing Caputova included Managing Partner Radovan Pala, Partner Jan Lazur, and Senior Associates Zoltan Nagy and Tomas Pazmany.
