Case: Protecting Business Reputation

Business reputation protection is legal action to rebut false information that harms a company or individual’s reputation. This may include filing a lawsuit for rebuttal and damages.

How to protect your dignity when someone tries to compromise you on the Internet and in the media? It often happens that a photo of a real specialist who has worked fruitfully for years and gained authority in his professional field suddenly ends up on a site with dubious content or outright lies. But even in such a situation, you should not give up – the law firm “DE-JURE” has experience in assisting in cases of restoring honor and business reputation.

– Yes, these are usually very complex cases, and it is not always possible to reach the site owner through a domain registered anywhere outside of Ukraine, as standard legal practice requires, – says the lawyer of the law firm “DE-JURE” Larisa Kis. – In such cases, the consideration of the case can last for years. You have to find the editor-in-chief of the media and work with him, and it is good if there is personal contact. Once I had to explain to a well-known editor that the information on the site is not true, and provide counterarguments. In the end, we reached a compromise, and the article about our client was removed from the site. Perhaps this approach is not 100% correct, but I work for the result.
