Well, if you have a true slander suit, contact a lawyer in your state who can help you prepare the case. Try www.attorneypages.com, the Texas state bar or legal aid. Legal Aid may not handle such cases but may point you to other sources. The lawyer will tell you if your slander case should go forward or the person you feel slandered you may have immunity from suit. http://attorneypages.com/576TX/
