I'm sorry to hear about your situation, Tammy. Can you please tell me where you are located? This will help me provide more relevant information.
I can't read the last sentence because it is right in the chat line
I understand your frustration, Tammy. To help you better, could you please tell me which state you're operating in? Different states may have different laws regarding this issue.
I am in Hartville Ohio
Thank you for the information, Tammy. In Ohio, you could potentially have a case under "tortious interference with business relationships." This law protects you when a third party intentionally damages your business relationships. You might need to consult with a local attorney to discuss your specific situation.
Okay that's what I was trying to find out also she has lied and told people that I had put a dead rat behind her car the district manager watched video of the day of me being accused of doing such I have it in text message there was nothing found because I didn't do it she still has a job I'm losing money because I cannot pick up orders at the restaurant all over the US
It seems you are dealing with defamation. In Ohio, essential elements of a defamation claim are:
- False statement
- Published to a third party
- Fault of the publisher
- Injury to your reputation
Consider consulting a local attorney.
Okay now I just have to find I guess an attorney that I've never had to do this so I don't know how to who I'm looking for
I understand your concern, Tammy. To find a local attorney in Hartville, Ohio, you can use resources like the Ohio State Bar Association's lawyer referral service. They can help you find a lawyer who specializes in business law or defamation.
Thank you very much
You're welcome, Tammy! I'm glad I could assist. If you have any more questions in the future, don't hesitate to ask. Good luck with your situation!
