My former employer gave a statement to his Worker''s Comp Claims rep that was defamatory and untrue in an attempt to discredit me. I

In this statement, he made numerous false allegations against me, with the worst of these being that I embezzled money from his bookkeeper in the amount of $60,000, but stated no one could prove it. During my 2 months of employment, I was responsible for Marketing and Promotions and never had anything to do with his finanaces, nor did I ever work with his bookkeeper. My Worker''s Compensation Atty. requested the interviews and that is when we discovered that he gave this statement on May 25, 2011. The insurance company never should have allowed my former employer to make such a statement that is untrue and inflammatory and my own agent ,who also works for this company, was appalled that a statement as derogatory as this one even left their offices, let alone was recorded and transcribed. Furthermore, this claims rep allegedly repeated this story to my daughter, from whom I am estranged, thereby causing me problems with visitation with my granddaughter. No charges were ever filed!!
