COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Will a cease-and-desist letter force someone to stop?

It is a formal demand, not a court order. Its legal effect and available enforcement steps depend on the circumstances.

Can this address negative online reviews?

Only where a valid legal basis exists; criticism and truthful statements may be protected.

Can recipients dispute a letter?

Yes. A reasoned response may challenge the factual allegations, legal basis or proposed terms.
