Business defamation

Business defamation
 

Quite simply, running a successful business depends on having a good reputation. When that is threatened you need to know that there are steps you can take to address it.  Discovering that untrue and potentially damaging remarks have been made about your business or the products or services it sells can be hugely frustrating and distressing particularly when you have worked hard to build up a good reputation in what you do. With the internet and the explosion of online publications, chat forums and social media sites, defamation on the internet is on the increase.

Your business may have suffered as a result of something one of your competitors or customers has said or written, or you feel that your business has been unfairly targeted or criticised in a publication or broadcast. We can quickly assess the details and tell you if it’s possible to prevent the remarks being published, aired or sent to other people or organizations. Beyond that we can limit the damage to your reputation by getting the individual or organization to formally agree not to repeat or publish the remarks again. We’ll let you know if you’re able to make a claim for damages or if an apology or retraction can be secured. We also have proven success in getting defamatory material quickly removed from websites.

As a law firm we often secure work on the strength on our reputation; we understand how important it is to you to maintain yours.
