Defamation is an intentionally false communication, either published in writing or spoken, that injures the reputation or good name of the subject. Internet defamation, whether it be in published articles on-line, in blogs or e-mails is now the subject of a great deal of defamation actions in the courts.
Lawyers at our Toronto law firm have been involved in litigation on behalf of aggrieved plaintiffs who are the subject of defamatory statements as well as on behalf of defendants who are accused of defamation. We are also experienced in acting on injunctions brought to restrain defamatory conduct and to compel the removal of defamatory materials from the internet and print.
