    How Our Arizona Internet Lawyers Can Help Your Business

    Internet Law in the United States, and the state of Arizona, is incredibly complex but is an area that nearly all businesses and citizens must navigate at some point.

    From libel to the legalities of running an online business and more, you need the best possible legal guidance when it comes to a variety of internet law-related issues. Learn more below about the different areas of internet law that our Arizona lawyers can help you with.

    Trade Libel

    Trade Libel is when someone publishes harmful false statements about your business. Whether it’s a disgruntled employee, customer, or competitor, trade libel can be incredibly harmful to your business if not addressed quickly.

    We work directly with businesses experiencing trade libel and help them remove and/or address false reviews and defamatory statements posted online about their company.

    Cyber Bullying

    Under Arizona law, Cyberbullying is defined as online harassment, online threats, and repeated unwanted and aggressive behavior.

    This includes:

    • Sending an aggressive or threatening text or email message
    • Spreading false rumors through social media
    • Online stalking and harassment
    • Pretending to be someone else online with the aim of causing harm to that person (also known as “catfishing”)

    In the state of Arizona, Cyberbullying is a crime that can result in a maximum of six months in prison and/or a $2,500 fine.

    At RM Warner, our attorneys seek justice for victims of Cyberbullying using defamation laws.
