| Someone has said or published defamatory statements about me. |
| |
| A defamatory statement is one which tends to lower a person "in the estimation of right-thinking members of society." Defamatory statements must be published, ie. communicated to a person other than the person who is the subject of the defamatory remark. |
| |
| New Brunswick Courts recognize defamation as a real wrong and will award damages to a person who has been seriously defamed. |
| |
| Defamation has strict time limitations, especially if the publication involves the media (ie. newspapers etc.) |
| |
| If you feel you have been defamed, please feel free to contact one of our lawyers for a free consultation. |
