Journalists and media outlets play an essential role in public information, but when reporting crosses the line into false or damaging statements, the consequences can be severe. Australian defamation law protects individuals, professionals, and organisations from reputational harm caused by inaccurate or unfair publications.
If you’ve been misrepresented in a newspaper article, TV broadcast, radio program, or online news report, you may be entitled to seek a correction, apology, or damages. Likewise, if you’re a journalist or publisher facing a defamation claim, legal advice is essential to protect your rights and reputation.
Law Tram connects you with lawyers experienced in both sides of media defamation, including those representing affected individuals and those defending responsible journalism.
Start by completing our secure online questionnaire. This step allows you to provide essential details about the publication, broadcast, or statement that has caused harm.
