Hi all,
I have experienced some negligence and trauma from a private mental health clinic who breached confidentiality about 50 times and failed to take my privacy concerns seriously, which are protected by law.
If I took my story public and tried to get newspapers and TV stations involved, and it damaged the reputation of this clinic, can they sue me for defamation ? Everything I shared would all be true but it's a Catholic organisation and speaking out about the abuse would damage their reputation severely. Could they sue me for that? I'm not sure if it would identify individuals or just write it as an overall thing.
Thank you,
Jane
