Overview
Amundsen Davis’s Entertainment Media & Technology practice group regularly defends public figures, including politicians, celebrities, and local public officials, as well as private individuals and businesses in litigation matters that threaten to infringe on First Amendment rights to free speech.
In a lawsuit brought in the Circuit Court of DuPage County, the firm achieved a dismissal with prejudice on behalf of a member of a prominent, national professional association of physicians, who was sued for Defamation after questioning the potentially unethical tactics of a nominee for president of the association. On appeal, the trial court decision was affirmed by the Second District Appellate Court.
