Online defamation can cause real harm to a small business owner’s reputation and bottom line. Fortunately, legal recourse is available to protect businesses from falsehoods.
In this case, our client sought our assistance after a dissatisfied customer began posting our client’s criminal record online any time someone recommended his business.
Our civil litigation attorneys sent a cease and desist letter to the disgruntled customer, demanding they stop posting defamatory remarks about our client. Since then, the online defamation has stopped. Our client’s reputation was restored, and they saved valuable time and money by avoiding a lawsuit.
