Paul Fishlock in legal battle with The Campaign Palace
Paul Fishlock – the F in BMF – is suing former employer The Campaign Palace.
The legal tussle centres on the nature of Fishlock’s exit from the Y&R-owned agency in February.
Mumbrella can reveal that Fishlock has filed a claim with the Supreme Court.
Fishlock left The Palace – an agency he worked for more than a decade over two spells – after the arrival of current ECD Reed Collins.
Okay so none of us can possibly know the facts of the case. If we did, we probably wouldn’t comment.
But this sort of thing happens more often than most punters in adland would ever know and it’s not a good look for any agency’s management to let a thing like this go so far.
They have their problems, it seems
Lawyers are the winners as usual
Lawyers are the only one’s who will win from this. If PF is taking it this far there’s either a shed-load of money at stake or a strong revenge motivation. Or both. Good luck. I can almost hear the legal counsel’s brandy balloons clinking now in celebration.
WPP strikes again.
a few comments.
Paul Fishlock is a fundamentally decent person.
His arrival back at the Palace in 2004 coincided with their resurgence which…for a few years, was exceptional.
The way he was treated is symptomatic of the way many of the best senior executives at the Palace and the wider group were handled within that group over the past decade.
That treatment coincided with all of the best people leaving the group.

I really hope Paul gets some money out of WPP
But WPP rarely lose court cases
