EXPERT WITNESS for economic damages, malicious or negligent causation of emotional distress, issues relating to social media (SM), mainstream media, online and internet defamation, libel review, public/private figures, the right to privacy, slander, libel, and cost of defamation management/repair
SERVICES: Expert witness reports and/or testimony in defamation of character cases, including both libel and slander, as well as portrayal in a false light and right to privacy cases. This leverages 30 years of experience as a credible journalist and one of the first practitioners of search engine optimization, as well as 20 years of consulting directly with end-clients on emotional distress issues. I am familiar with most aspects of defamation, from gossip campaigns to online defamation and reputation management. Particular areas of expertise:

• Traditional mainstream media libel. I've been an editor, journalist, and author for 30 years, and know the aspects from fault to hot-button words.
• Online defamation through review/rating web sites, or head-on SEO attacks (e.g., through Google or YouTube listings).
• Maliciously, negligently, or recklessly inflicted emotional distress.
Conflicts: very few. I'm not in...
