How we help with online defamation complaint

  • Evidence and document review

    Our review covers complete publication and URL, dated screenshots, context, attribution evidence and records of the alleged harm. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.

  • Does removing a post settle an online-defamation allegation?

    Article 3 of the Anti-Cyber Crime Law addresses defamation and harm through information technology. Preserve the exact publication and evidence linking it to the alleged publisher and harm. A platform’s removal decision applies its own process and does not determine criminal responsibility or compensation. A private settlement also has to be distinguished from the public prosecution. Preserve the exact words, full context, publication link, date and audience evidence. Distinguish alleged factual statements from opinion and identify the person or organisation affected. Removal, criminal complaint and a damages claim are separate objectives requiring the applicable framework to be checked.

Legal Case Study

From a Complex Financial Accusation to a Final Acquittal

This matter concerns a financial accusation made against a client because funds were transferred to his personal account while he worked for a company. CounselO Legal conducted a comprehensive legal and accounting review of the file and established that the accounting report alone was insufficient to prove liability and that relevant documents, authorizations, and releases had not been considered. Following an integrated defense strategy, the client was acquitted; the judgment was then affirmed on appeal and became final after affirmation by the Supreme Court.
