Defamation

Being defamed or being accused of defaming someone can be stressful. Defamation occurs when a statement is made to a third party that is false and damages an individual’s or organization’s reputation. If defamation is spoken, it is called slander. If it is written, it is called libel.

The law of defamation is complex. Many people are not aware that posts on social media and other platforms can result in defamation claims. Similarly, simply telling at least one other person something untruthful can also result in a claim. The law sits at a crossroad between the constitutional right to free expression and the protection of the reputations of people and businesses.
