I have phone recordings from a person who did work for me at a business i used to own. They stated he was going to tell people not to go to my place of business, since its a small town (and we know how they are) hes realated to almost everyone, and business dewindled and we closed the doors. What are my odds of winning a lawsuit against this person for interference of business? Can I sue for my legal fees and distress of it.. etc? place was only open for a lil over a year and used to be a booming place til this happened.
