Defamation of Character

Over the holdiay weekend my ex-wife went to my place of employment and to law enforcement because I would not give our children back to her earlier than a time that we agreed to exchange them. She told both groups that I was in violation of an ex parte that was dismissed over 2yrs ago. She has used my employment in the military and fact that I have deployed overseas in her petitions for the ex parte. I feel as though she is using my military status to villanize me and would like to know if I have grounds to file a defamation of character suit against her.

Defamation is outside of family law practice. You should consult with a civil litigation attorney. Good luck.
