Q. Since recently, I recently lost my job in June 2024. Since than, I have been having issues with finding employment.

A: If you have proof of false statements to prospective employers and third parties, you may have a right to seek damages under torts, such as slander or libel. That depends upon what was communicated and proof thereof. black listed is uncertain as to what you mean... If someone give an opinion not to hire you, an opinion is not likely going to be actionable. However, if the opinion was not solicited, then you could have a tortuous interference claim. Consult a lawyer.

Q. Black listed and discriminated.

October 15, 2024

A: The question is unclear. I assume you mean from former employer. If there is any instance of a former employer communicating false information to other persons or entities that may be actionable torts, such as slander, libel and tortuous interference. If you suffered harm financially, then you should contact a lawyer.

Q. Can you sue for defamation of character if you are fired after a customer lied about you?

February 17, 2024

A: The tort of slander prohibits someone from publishing or making a false statement or defamatory statement, known to be false. So while you could make a claim against the customer, a matter of opinion isn’t going to help you if that’s the customers opinion. How would you ever prove the customer was lying? That would be the question. If it’s something black or white like somebody said you hit them and you didn’t, then you have more of a likelihood of success. In this instance, unless there was a clearly factual, false statement, I don’t see any potential legal claim.
