Libel And Privacy Violations

Summary

In Nevada, defamation claims must be filed within two years. If defamatory content is still online, you may have a case for defamation and invasion of privacy. Unauthorized use of your likeness for commercial purposes can also be pursued legally. Consider consulting a local attorney to explore your options for compensation and retribution.

What can I do about this libel case?
Hi ****! To better assist you, could you please provide your location (city or zipcode)? This helps in giving you the correct statute of limitations and other relevant information.
Reno, Nevada
Hi ****! In Nevada, the statute of limitations for libel/slander (defamation) is two years from the date of the defamatory act. Since the last defamatory post was in June *, it may be too late to file a defamation lawsuit now. However, you may want to consult with a local attorney to explore any other potential legal options.

Can you give me a bit more information about the issue?
The bail bond company not only embezzled money from me and my mother, but they have stolen photos from my Facebook page to use on their own advertisements for their company. The photos also are posted on ads that detail an embellished version of them capturing me as a fugitive, and bragging about their skills as agents, which is absolutely false. They posted these defamatory ads to Facebook and their own websites, smearing my character. As of today, these ads still remain posted on Facebook without my consent or permission. What kind of recourse do I have to get some sort of compensation for retribution?
