final cause

[dochank]

In PA, malicious rumors about my restaurant led to closing. Is there a law that the final cause is fully responsible? Business was poor, but viable until rumors started.

There are thousands of posts similar to yours so I have prepared a standard answer:

Get a lawyer.

Invest $20K and three years.

Sue the bad people for defamation.

If you win, expect them to keep doing it.

If you lose, expect them to keep doing it.


Stand by for other opinions.

What proof do you have? Are you saying no other factors led to the closing of the business?

Did someone tell people that the rat poop was 6" deep in the kitchen when it was really only 3" deep? You have to prove a 100% relationship between what the person said/did and the failure of your business.
