Online Libel Damages Your Reputation

So what is this “low-tech” threat that goes largely unnoticed by the community, is ignored by criminal prosecutors and yet is the cause of billions of dollars in irreparable damage? What causes business goodwill, personal reputation and very significantly the emotional well-being of the human victims to suffer terribly? This threat is called “ONLINE LIBEL”; a 21st Century form of the ancient legal theory of “SLANDER” with origins in Roman jurisprudence.

Offenders who are particularly pernicious in their smear campaigns are often narcissists at best or sociopaths at worst, if your case meets this criteria it is important that you understand what makes them tick.

This libelous abuse of free speech and the impact on the victims is taken so seriously in the EU that it is a criminal offence (if malicious).

Defend Your Reputation

The efficiency of today’s search engines combined with federal government immunity for re-publishers of libel is a devastating dilemma for those caught in the web. This growing risk of unchecked defamation should be taken seriously by any person or organization with aspirations to a long and productive existence or career.

Rexxfield offers economical and common-sense solutions to mitigate these risks in the short and long term. If the quagmire of litigation is unavoidable we can help your attorneys achieve results faster and more economically than they can alone. However, we can usually achieve results outside the court; often without your antagonist noticing.

Seven Deadly Sins of Online Reputation Management

  1. Waiting until it happens to you

  2. Responding or rebutting claims under the negative postings

  3. Threatening to sue bloggers

  4. Clicking offending pages from search results (raises rankings)

  5. Demanding re-publishers of libel to delete (they are legally immune); ask nicely

  6. Being too defensive; people are fickle

  7. Asking for trouble (attacking others online)

We have encountered horror stories of patients who refuse to comply with post-op instructions and prescribed treatments and yet publicly vilify the attending physicians, nurses and institutions for the resulting complications.
