What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
Not sure if this is best place to post, but curious if I have any legal options....
My wife and I own our own small business, LLC. We have 8 employees. One of our employees has a very disgruntled ex-wife who has been creating Facebook accounts with our company logo as the cover picture. She is then going on to create posts stating that people should not get involved with our company because of the employees we hire. This 'ex' is taking photos from our Facebook page and posting them on the fake accounts, making them appear that they are real. She is also taking pictures from the particular employee's new husband's (I know, this is confusing) Facebook page and posting that he is a child molester and that he is at our events taking pictures.
The employee is saying she does not want to take legal action because she can not prove that it is her exwife doing the actual posting.
I would like to do something, being that I feel this is negatively effecting our business, but not sure if anything can be done about simply reposting pictures on facebook.
Thank you in advance for any help.
