Effective defense against insults and defamation

Offenses of defamation and insult (Articles 212 and 216 of the Criminal Code) are prosecuted by private prosecution, so it is the aggrieved party, not the prosecutor, who submits and supports the indictment. The lawyers of the Law Firm, acting on behalf of the aggrieved party, managed to convict the client for insult and defamation. A successful young Warsaw businessman found himself in an embarrassing situation when the accused began to direct insults and false accusations against him – by calling his company, coming to the office and sending text messages. The decisive actions of the lawyers before the court led to the conviction and punishment of the guilty, who is additionally obliged to reimburse the victim for the costs of representation.
