What is the name of your state? Wisconsin

I've been writing a memoir/autobiography and I've reached a point where I have to write very negative things about a relative that is still living. Is it considered slander for me to write bad things about somebody and my opinions on that person? Could I be sued if I was to get the book published? Can someone help me? Thanks!
