The last decade has seen an exponential growth on the internet of negative websites, blogs, and chat rooms containing highly critical, disparaging and sometimes defamatory content about businesses, executives and/or products. Much of this commentary is made or posted anonymously. This presentation will focus on the law of internet defamation, including who can be held legally responsible and approaches to identifying anonymous speakers, as well as offer some practical solutions to addressing this increasing problem.

This seminar is designed for in-house counsel and other interested corporate executives; Quarles & Brady will apply for one hour of CLE credit. Clients attending will receive a CLE report at the end of the year for all earned credit.

Mark your calendars for the second Thursday of each month for our ongoing continuing legal education programs.

Registrations must be received by Friday, February 3, 2012. 

Next month's Business Law Training will take place on Thursday, March 8, 2012.
