My friend has been blackmailed or suffered from extortion for the last two yrs because of an affair he had with this woman. She is threatening with telling the wife and my friend knows his life career and marriage will be over if exposed. Can he file a claim against the woman without his details becoming public knowledge?

Truth is a defense to both libel and slander. If he had an affair, then the person can comment. I would recommend negotiating a settlement with the woman which is written and sealed. Ed Dimon, Esq. 732-797-1600
