Libel Law

 

My wife who is a barrister did her pupillage years ago in libel chambers.

The most important thing to realise about libel laws is that those who sue for libel always suffer. Those who sue get large legal fees, their careers nosedive and their books don't sell.

There is the tale of the well-known man of the City who collects all the libels made against him and has them displayed around his office. He never ever sues and is very successful.

Remember the Curse of Gnome.
