Last Words

This is our ‘secret’ page.  It can only be accessed through one link on our site.

Ideally, by now you’ll have traversed right through our Legal Guide to reach this final destination.  If so, well done!

On the other hand, you might have just stumbled across this page when viewing what we had to say about Case Procedure.  That’s okay, too.

But here’s our last words for those who’ve read right through.

The law can be pretty mundane at times, and its explanation often esoteric.

But hopefully, no matter your legal prowess, our Legal Guide has provided some insight, and let you see defamation law like we do: as a profoundly interesting and unique facet of democratic society – the pointy end of free speech.  Like all legal machinery, it can be abused.  But the law also remains critically important to provide structure and clarity to those in need, whether it’s an individual or company whose reputation has been unfairly besmirched, or a well-meaning publisher who needs protection to advance their fundamental rights.

In any case, we think it’s something always worth knowing a little more about, whether you’re a publisher, student, academic, potential litigant, lawyer, or even a judge!

Finally, if you have in fact read through our Legal Guide, you might have been worried along the way about Louis and Sally, to whom we’ve attributed all manner of defamations and slurs.

Don’t worry, they’re doing just fine.

Thanks for your time.  Why not check out some of our Posts, or scroll our record of Court Decisions?

We’ll keep adding content as long as the internet keeps working.
