Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida

Re: Bad debts

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

I have not researched the topic but I would imagine it could have serious implications for you and potential liability for slander or the like. Obviously there is no law directly on point, but if you are seriously considering this project for your business, then you should retain an attorney who can do the legal research and provide you with a viable answer.
