Defamation / Cease-and-Desist Notice

Demand retraction, apology and takedown of defamatory content.

Why act now: Defamatory content spreads exponentially within 48–72 hours. A formal cease-and-desist on our empanelled advocates' letterhead is the leverage most platforms require before they honour takedown requests.
