Bad Review on Yelp = Lawsuit?
I never really thought anything after posting a negative review on yelp. I've done many bad reviews on certain occasions where the restaurant was just plain bad. I had written a draft for a daycare my daughter was in for a couple months, that if I had posted, I'm sure the daycare wouldn't be too happy about. But I never thought that posting your opinion about a business will result in a lawsuit.Christopher Dietz filed a $750,000 Internet defamation lawsuit against Perez last month, saying the postings on Yelp and others on Angie’s List were false and sent customers fleeing.Tags: None -
