Defamation

Jordans Litigation Team has significant experience handling defamation actions on behalf of companies and businesses.

Defamation is the collective legal label for anything written (Libel) or spoken (Slander) which is untrue and which harms your reputation in the eyes of the public.  Corporate sabotage can increase in difficult climates as companies compete within narrower industries.  Dirty tactics employed by one company against a competitor might overstep the mark and amount to defamation.

You might sell direct to the public and find yourself on the receiving end of unforgiving and often uncalled for negative publicity.  This can have serious ramifications on your business’ reputation and the comments may amount in law to defamation and as such, be actionable.

The majority of such actions can be resolved without Court proceedings being commenced and negotiations often result in the offending material being removed, an apology and retraction being given and if necessary compensation for damages suffered as a result of the defamation.
