She is going to have to prove that she lost business as a direct result of those posts, which is going to be difficult at best. And I can tell you right now she's not going to get diddly for "pain and suffering" over something someone posted on the web. That's just ridiculous.
Hey Toad,

My sister is a lawyer, graduated from UK's law school. I'm telling you, she will try to sue over anything. She threatened to sue me when my Father was dying. He had a do not resusicitate (spelling??) advanced directive, and she was living in a far western state. She threatened to sue me if I did not keep my Dad alive to give her time to get home to say goodbye. Oh did I mention, she was taking over a week to get home, when you can drive it in less than 24 hours? Said she could not get a flight... sheesh...

Makes me questions lawyers even more!!! And, I have to wonder about the law school, although there was no indication that the lawyer in the original post graduated from UK!!

I am sure there are some good lawyers, and I may have met one, once.... LOL Just joking, I know there are some that are good.
