I have an owner that is continually acting my character, reputation and telling other owners that I am a criminal, lie and don't do my job. These comments are becoming very damaging to a reputation I have worked hard to build and pose a threat to my livelihood.. I do have a few misdemeanors in my past, the last one being over 15 years ago. I have passed all my employment background checks with numerous companies and also passed the State background check for my Community Association Managers license. Is there anything I can do to prevent this type activity. letting other owners

This is a borderline "defamation" case depebding on what was actually stated. This may also be more of a "doxxing" case which is where truthful statements are made about someone but they are things most people would not come to learn otherwise and exposed ina manner to humilate or embarass someone for some improper purpose. We handle such cases, BUT, they are most typically handled with a retainer and hourly rate basis., and not on a contingent fee, which is where the the onlu gets paid when and if they recover money. Sometimes a "cease and sesist" letter from a lawyer is useful in this type of case to avoid the expense of litigation.
