Major Law

Workplace defamation can take many forms

Defamation often occurs when the executive or professional has accepted a position at a new place of employment. Before that person moves on, the former employer may attempt to tarnish that person’s reputation with the current employer, the future employer and possibly even the business community in general.

Fortunately, Illinois law does not tolerate this situation. The law provides a number of avenues of redress for employees victimized by defamation. Ms. Major can advise you as to your options.
