Hello All~ I have a couple questions about what exactly my options might be to a former friend/coworker for defamation of character at a former job - I no longer work there and she does. I had a pretty significant event happen to me and she spread it all over work, I think knowingly telling people who liked to gossip. It got back to me and now I am worried what else she has said to others. I am tempted to get a restraining order but I am not sure if that will keep her mouth shut or not. Any thoughts on this? I contacted an old friend from the HR department and haven't heard back yet. This woman is also extremely vindictive and will most likely try to retaliate against me contacting HR if she finds out too. Any thoughts?
