FAQ

If someone is harassing you, a cease and desist letter may convince them to stop. However, you are not required to send a cease and desist letter before taking legal action.

If you or your business are being targeted by harmful online or offline content, a cease and desist letter may be your best choice for quickly bringing those defamatory statements (both libel and slander) to an end without having to wait for a lengthy legal process.

Try to remain calm and assess the situation. If you feel safe doing so, maintain a confident posture and make eye contact. If you feel comfortable, you can assertively tell the harasser to stop. Use a firm voice and clear language, such as ``Leave me alone'' or ``I don't appreciate that.''

Receiving a cease and desist letter is a serious issue. It indicates the sender's intention to pursue you for the alleged wrongdoing if you do not follow their demands. Receiving a cease and desist letter does not necessarily mean you will end up in Court.
