I have a current Employee and a Former employee who are going around spreading rumors about our managers/owners to our regular customers, neighboring business, and other employees. Several employees & customer have come and expressed their concern about the rumors; can we sue the current and former employee for slander?

Hello Mimi:

Sure. You're going to have to prove that they said it, that it was a lie, and you're going to show exactly how much it cost you.
