Internet Brands entered the Legal space in 2010 and operates flagship online legal brands Nolo (high - quality legal content for consumers and attorney leads), Martindale - Hubbell (legal directory,
websites and peer ratings), Ngage (live
chat) and
Total Attorneys (attorney leads).
I see there is a recent 304 paragraph decision in B.C. — Newman et al v. Halstead et al, 2006 BCSC 65 — in which the court awarded damages
totalling $ 681,000 against an individual defendant (who did not appear at the trial, hence there was no defence per se) for her liability in making defamatory statements on her
website,
chat rooms and email about various teachers in which she made allegations of misconduct and allegations that the School Board mishandled or covered up this activity.
