"Even if you subscribe to Justice Thomas’s strict originalism, it must be conceded that for a generation, Sullivan and its progeny were defensible because they acted as a shield for the fourth estate in a relatively stable marketplace of ideas.

You work hard running a business to support your family. One day you encounter a demanding customer. You assuage their concerns, resolve their issues, and assume that's the end of it. Au contraire.

A few days later you wake up to a dozen emails. Your Google Business account is being bombarded with batsh*t reviews from sock puppet accounts. False claims, false narratives, walls of text that don't even make sense. By the afternoon it's spilling over onto Reddit, Yelp, and Facebook. Some low-grade parasite "digital creator" whose mother didn't love them, living on a trust fund or unemployment, with nothing better to do than torture you and the loved ones you go to work every day to earn a living for. Hundreds of this person's pea-brained followers pouring out sympathy and shocked-face emojis. 😲😲😲 The victim industrial complex wants heads on a pike and today, they fixated on you.

At Late Night Law® we see it all the time. But know this: defamation is not protected speech. And you have an experienced defamation attorney in your corner who absolutely despises liars. Call us today. (505) 225-2623.

When you're being harassed over the internet, the damage to both your public image, and your personal well-being, is profound. Doxxing is a common form of online harassment that occurs when personally identifying information is exposed on the internet, in an individually targeted manner meant to shame or intimidate someone. Washington state affords unique civil protections against cyber-harassment and doxxing. That's why Late Night Law® is proud to represent clients from Seattle to Spokane.

The search for truth is the essence of freedom. Free speech, free inquiry, and free debate—these are the cornerstones of American life and human liberty.

We combat toxic disinformation on behalf of defamation plaintiffs, and vindicate core civil liberties for defendants in their search for truth.

As a dedicated defamation law firm, we know the anxiety and sleepless nights that online harassment causes our clients. That's why we don't sleep on your case. As Justice Kagan said, "Reputational harm is real harm, and the legal system should not pretend that it is not."
