The Defamation Letter is a critical legal instrument in Swiss jurisdiction, used when an individual or organization needs to formally address harmful false statements affecting their reputation. It serves as both a demand letter and a prerequisite to potential legal action, carefully documenting the defamatory content, its context, and impact under Swiss legal framework. This document is typically employed when informal resolution attempts have failed or when immediate formal intervention is necessary. The letter must align with Swiss legal requirements, particularly referencing relevant sections of the Swiss Criminal Code and Civil Code, and can be used in both civil and criminal contexts. It's essential for establishing a formal record of the complaint and providing the accused party an opportunity to rectify the situation before court proceedings.
