Not every damaging statement amounts to defamation. Australian law recognises several defences that protect freedom of expression, public debate, and honest communication especially when the publication is true, fair, or in the public interest.
If you’ve received a concerns notice, been threatened with a defamation lawsuit, or are preparing a publication that could be challenged, understanding these legal defences is crucial.
Law Tram connects you with lawyers who can explain and apply the available defences to your situation, helping you respond lawfully and strategically.
Start by completing our secure online questionnaire. This step allows you to provide essential details about the publication and the issues raised in the claim.
Law Tram’s advanced technology generates a confidential legal summary of your matter while keeping your personal and publication details private.
Your confidential legal summary is shared with our network of vetted lawyers who review your case to determine how they can assist.
If a lawyer believes they can help, they will initiate a chat with you through the Law Tram platform. Your contact details remain private unless you choose to share them.
You are under no pressure to retain any lawyer unless you are confident in their ability to assist. Law Tram empowers you to make informed decisions.
