Very frequently anymore when we have a negative experience somewhere, we immediately post about it on social media. Most of the time the words are the truth. Maybe sometimes they are exaggerated for effect. However, did you ever wonder if a company could sue you because you posted a negative review?
A Texas bride and groom learned the answer the hard way. It seems they never read their contract concerning dates when their photographs would be provided after the wedding. When they didn't get their way, the bride immediately resorted to her blog to slam this photographer. The problem was that what she was saying was not actually the truth.
The photographer sued her for making disparaging and defamatory statements online that results in her business going down hill. The bride and groom then tried to claim someone posed as them online to write fake reviews, but that was proven false. In the end, the jury found the couple's behavior malicious and ruled in the photographer's favor in the amount of $1.08 million in damages.
