Have you been a victim of Slander or Libel by your employer or former employer?

Defamation (or defamation of character) is the legal term used to describe slander or libel--false statements made about another person or organization. Defamatory accusations can ruin your business, affect your ability to get a job, or destroy your character and reputation.

In such circumstances, the employee has to choose between trying to get another job while under a cloud, or remaining in a hostile workplace. If you have been put in a similar situation by your employer through false accusations by your employer of stealing, sexual harassment, discrimination, or other employee misconduct, for more information, please access our employment defamation articles.
