INSIGHT

Cease-And-Desist Is A Warning, Not A Verdict

  • A cease-and-desist functions as a legal warning meant to stop alleged defamatory statements before a lawsuit.
  • The hosts explain it signals threat of legal action but does not always mean an imminent lawsuit.
ADVICE

Always Identify The Sender Of Legal Demands

  • Sign cease-and-desist letters so recipients know who is making the demand and why.
  • Ask the sending lawyer to disclose the client if you receive an anonymous-sounding demand.
