Are you or your business the target of defamation and want to know how long the statute of limitations is for you to file your lawsuit?
In this video, I am going to walk you through how long you have to file your defamation lawsuit so that you can best preserve your legal rights and do not miss your chance to recover damages or hold the perpetrator liable for their actions.
Watch and learn:
1. What the Statute of Limitations is and when the Statute of Limitations starts “running” for libel and slander claims.
2. How long you have to file suit after the defamation in question occurs.
3. The most common exceptions to the statute of limitations that can extend the limitations period, such as the discovery rule and single publication rule.
Finally, I tackle related torts to defamation that businesses may rely on when faced with defamation (and their typically longer statutes of limitation).
