Well to start, there is no such right. We ALL have responsibility for our actions, and if your statements are ultimately deemd improper as to content, time and place etc, you may well have an exposure. You would be wise to hire a lawyer to assist you with this as I have seen MANY people get sued over things they think is proper or right and then end up scrambling to hire a lawyer or worse, try to defend themseleves. If you would like to inquire about retaining our office for this purpose, please feel free to call our office at 1-800-922-6442 for a FREE consultation.
