Defamation is the issuance of a false statement about another person, which causes that person to suffer harm. Slander involves the making of defamatory statements by a transitory representation, usually an oral representation. Libel involves the making of defamatory statements in a printed or fixed medium, such as a magazine or newspaper.
Some cases involve not physical injury but injury to a person's reputation. In some cases where on person defames another publicly, substantial compensations have been made. If you have been publicly defamed, call the Law Offices of Dennis P. Biancanello
