Legal Question
Legal Action threatened for mentioning a company on my website
Because we are being ripped off by a contractor, we have a website with the facts. We mentioned that this contractor belonged to a certain Builders Assocation, that's why we trusted he could do the job properly. We have a link to their org to show their ''mission'', this link is how we found the contractor is a member before hiring him.
We just got this email: '' I have viewed your webpage. XXX XXXX Association is a member based trade organization. It is apparent that installation and manufacture's warranty is a current issue. Your site states, '' We felt confident that we would get professional installation, as he belonged to XXXX XXXX Association''. We are requesting that you remove this sentence and all reference to our association and the link to our website. We do not monitor or control manufacture's installations/specifications or guidelines and there fore we do not guarantee professional installation on our website. We are currently discussing this matter with our legal council and action will be taken if this is not removed by the close of business February 13, 2008.''
Is my website breaking the law? I certainly don't want to break any laws, please advise.
Any help would be appreciated
