Types Of Defamation
Defamation can take two primary forms:
- Libel: This is written or published false statements.
- Slander: It involves spoken false statements.
Both forms can cause harm, but the medium of communication affects how cases are handled and proven. In the digital age, libel takes the form of social media posts, online reviews or articles, while slander may occur during business meetings or public events.
Proving Defamation
To successfully prove defamation, the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant made a false and damaging statement, shared it with others and caused reputational harm. In some cases, proving malice or negligence is necessary, especially if the plaintiff is a public figure.
Gathering evidence, such as witness testimonies, documentation or digital records, can help build a strong case. Our lawyers at Aaronson Schantz Beiley P.A. can guide clients through this process, helping ensure the necessary proof is collected and presented effectively.
Defamation In A Business Setting
Businesses are not immune to defamation. False statements about a company’s products, services or leadership can negatively impact revenue and customer trust. Competitors, disgruntled employees or unsatisfied clients may engage in defamatory practices that harm your brand.
