Internet Defamation Lawyer

Internet Defamation occurs when someone posts a false factual negative statement on the Internet.  We encounter Internet defamation most frequently as a result of statements posted in a web log (blog) or in an Internet forum.  These posts constituting Internet defamation are often cached and indexed by the major search engines.

An Internet defamation attorney with our Internet defamation law firm is experienced in removing these cyber libel and online slander from the website where the defamation is posted and from the major search engines.  Whether your business is defamed in an Internet blog, Internet forum, or anywhere online, or whether you need expert advice to interpret the Communications Decency Act, our Internet defamation attorneys can protect your reputation in cyberspace.

Internet defamation law changes constantly as courts interpret the Communications Decency Act and other laws affecting you rights online.  The distinction between a service provider and a content provider is subject to different interpretations.  A recent interpretation is the Roomate.com case.
