Legal Question
My photograph is being used to promote without my consent
I am a dancer at a transsexual lounge. The owner of the lounge used my photo in all of the newspaper and other print ads without first asking my permission. I didn't want to cause a problem when I found out what she'd done, so I verbally told her she should compensate me on several occasions. She never did, but continued to run the ad. I told her to take it out several times, but she didn't. After one year, I no longer work there. I demanded that she quit running the ad. She finally took it out. Can I recover damages from the fact that she 'outed' my true identity in the public, as well as the fact that she profited greatly from these ads? Thank you.
