Anti-SLAPP Cases
At Dumas & Vaughn, we represent people who have been harmed by defamation. If you have been sued for defamation but were exercising certain free speech rights, you may be able to file what’s called an “Anti-SLAPP” motion (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) in Oregon to get the case dismissed early and force the other party to pay your attorney’s fees. Anti-SLAPP motions can only be used for certain types of conduct, and each case requires a fact-specific evaluation.
