These accusations can appear in emails, blogs, social media, videos, or review websites. They may come from competitors, customers, or strangers or anonymous person, and damage they can cause, including: severe financial damage, refined reputation, compromised professional opportunities, strained or severed relationships with friends, and even physical symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and stress.
Elements of Defamation

- There is a false statement made about the plaintiff,
- It was communicated to a third party,
- It was made with at least a negligent level of intent, and
- It caused damage to the plaintiff’s reputation.
What is Business Defamation ?
Businesses can claim defamation when they are the target of false assertions of fact about their business. For example, such situations might involve:
- False reviews on consumer review sites,
- Fake reports or reviews on professional review and/or networking sites, and
- False reports or complaints on complaint websites.
Can a Business Sue For Defamation?
Businesses have the same rights to sue for defamation as individuals do. In fact, businesses have the additional ability to make specialized claims for damages and relief that are not available to individuals under traditional libel laws.
How Does Defamation Affect a Business?
It may be a commonly heard phrase, but the idea that “all press is good press” is not always true. Defamation can affect a business in very real ways. For example, business defamation can lead to:
- Decreased foot traffic and customers,
- Loss of advertising and sponsorships,
- Loss of reputation in the public eye,
- Reviewers feeling more comfortable leaving negative reviews of the business,
- Lower employee morale,
- Difficulty retaining quality employees and talent,
- Decreased bottom line, and
- Having to close the business’s doors for good.
