Angry Slander?

I don't know if this is the correct forum for me. My husband was recently approved for disability. I just found out that his ex-wife has contacted Social Security and said that he filed false medical reports. This is a complete lie. Do we have grounds to sue her for slander? We were told that it could take up to 4 months to sort this out before a check gets here. Can we sue her for the lost money for that? Please help. This woman just can't stand it that my husband may get money she can't touch.

Default Re: Slander?

If someone publicly says or writes anything factually untrue and it damages you, you indeed can sue for slander, libel, defamation, interference with business relations etc. -- or at least threaten to do so and give a warning.
