Libel or slander?

Defamatory statements can be made in a number of ways, including word of mouth, social media and written publications like newspapers or magazines. If something unfair or untrue is said or written about you or your business which is likely to lower you in the estimation of other people, this is defamation of character.

People sometimes become confused about the difference between libel and slander. Libel is when the defamatory statements have been made in a permanent form – this usually applies to written publications but it also includes comments made during television or radio broadcasts or on websites.

Slander is when the defamatory statements are made in a more transient form. If someone talks about you in a negative way to other people, this is slander.

I believe I have been defamed, what should I do?

If something defamatory has been written or said about you, get in touch with us straight away so we can work out what your next move should be. You should also contact us for legal advice if you have good reason to believe you are about to become the victim of libel as we may be able to keep your reputation intact by securing an injunction to prevent the damaging statements being published.

We will calmly talk you through your options before giving you professional advice tailored to your unique personal circumstances.

There are a number of steps we can take to help clear your name and see that justice is done.

These include:

  • Seeking an injunction to prevent repetition of the libel or slander
  • Claiming for damages
  • Securing a suitable apology

Please don’t delay if you believe you have been the victim of defamation as court proceedings must be issued within a year of the date of publication.
