Below is a press release by Carter Ruck Solicitors who acted for EDC Lord in a libel action against the owner of the website Solicitors from Hell, who was publishing very damaging and untrue comments about EDC Lord and its Partners.
The law firms EDC Lord & Co and Jordans Solicitors have successfully settled
their libel action against Rick Kordowski, the owner of the website “Solicitors
from Hell”.
Mr Kordowski has removed the false and highly defamatory material posted on
the website about each of the firms and its solicitors. Mr Kordowski has also
provided an undertaking to the Court that he will not republish the false
allegations or list the firms on his website in the future.
The firms initially wrote to Mr Kordowski asking for the allegations to be taken
down, but he refused to do this without payment. As a matter of principle, the
firms refused to pay Mr Kordowski any money and they were left with no option
but to issue libel proceedings against him.
The firms and its solicitors are pleased that the false allegations have now
been removed from the website and that they will not be republished by Mr
Kordowski.
