I AM THE BATMAN OF OBSCENITY:

One lawyer’s crusade to defend extreme pornography



"I bought Jackman a soft drink (he very seldom “uses” alcohol) and we carried it outside to where he could smoke – rolling tobacco for thrift. (He earns so little money from his work, which is often pro-bono, that his mother is, not unreasonably, worried about where – and how – he is going to live when Charlie takes her flat back.)"

I am the only lawyer in the UK who specialises in obscenity law and sexual freedoms


What I do for You:

As an award-winning lawyer I am an expert at advising clients accused of sexual offences.

"Without Myles' advice, I would have lost my career" - 
Simon Walsh

I also provide a unique advisory service for clients in the arts and media; the adult industry; as well as offering pro bono advice for campaigns, organisations and activists.

"Myles is a crusader for sexual freedom" - Itziar Urrutia 

I have dedicated my career to challenging the legal framework by which sexual morality is constrained through my activism, campaigning, litigation and advocacy.

What You can do for Me:

I am currently consulting on an exclusively pro bono basis.
Therefore I am not getting paid for my work.
I also have no permanent accommodation in London.
I cannot pay my expenses to assist those who need my help.


To continue campaigning I need to be able to support myself.

Please help Me to help You by becoming my Patron.

My Objectives Are:

To provide legal advice and representation for members of sexual minorities.

To promote freedom of expression and privacy, for all consenting adults.

To campaign for the rights and recognition of the BDSM, LGBTQ, Adult Industry and Sex-Work communities.

To lobby, campaign and make legal challenges to obscenity laws including the Obscene Publications Act and the Extreme Pornography laws.

To lobby, campaign and make legal challenges to the sex-work laws, working towards decriminalisation.

To spread this message, by providing free lectures to students, other campaigns and organisations.


What I do Pro Bono:

I provide pro bono legal advice for the sexual liberties campaign Backlash

I am often contacted by individuals with issues, problems and enquiries about other areas of law arising out of their sexual preferences:

For example family law issues such as: aggrieved ex-partners making malicious allegations of “inappropriate” sexual behaviour (eg: private consensual bondage)

Or employment law issues such as: being “outed” at work; or being dismissed for “misconduct” (eg: viewing or making adult pornography in private; having an undisclosed second job as a sex-worker; or attending a fetish club).


What I do in Public:

I am also highly-regarded as a speaker and advocate for the BDSM, LGBTQ, Sex-Work, Adult Industry and Sex-Critical Academic communities.

I have made numerous media appearances, written articles, given commentary and lectures, often for free or at my own expense.

Media Appearances:
I have appeared on the BBC, ITV, Sky News, Channel 4 News and Al Jazeera English; been interviewed and quoted by The Independent, Guardian, Observer, Mail, New Statesman, Evening Standard, Scotsman on Sunday, The Economist and VICE; written well-received articles for The Independent and Guardian newspapers; as well as tweeting as @MylesJackman and blogging at MylesJackman.com.

Lectures:
I have spoken at The World Humanist Congress in Oxford, the Open Rights Group, Onscenity Network, Libertarian Alliance and various LGTBQ, BDSM, legal, academic and adult industry conferences. My obscenity cases are taught at law schools across the country; and I have also lectured at law faculties including Birmingham, Birkbeck and Bristol UWE.
