We posted a review on an engineering company's website stating that our building project did not comply with building regulations, was structurally unsound, was unsafe, and that the certification given was actually false, certs given for new foundations and radon barrier when there was nonce, certs to say it complied with building regulations when it didn't from a clearly visible perspective. Stating that we had to pay out 80k in remedial work, which is true. Stating that the engineering company were engaged for full project management and design, which was true, and had engaged the builder. Stating that the principal engineer was struck off by his professional body for a year, for professional misconduct - following our complaint - though he is appealing that. Now engineering company are threatening legal proceedings re our post if we do not take it down - how is our post defamatory, given that there are four reports to back it up from other professionals. Is it not possible to leave an honest, factual, true, bad review, or are we being bullied?
Thanks for the replies. Yes, we can fully back it up. Two expert witnesses and four reports - the expert witnesses are willing to testify in Court. The case is currently in the High Court. We can back absolutely everything up.
Newtothis - I don't know what you mean by strike-off? Do you mean professional body.

I recommend that you now consult with your solicitor to formulate a professionally guided response at this early stage.
Why should they be put to the expense of engaging a solicitor at this stage.
If I sell a vehicle for €50k, the owner find out it has major mechanical defects, and cost me €10k to put it right, the SiMi agree with a report stating these flaws, am I not to expect a poor review on my web site?
Is this not jumping the gun,

If this was actionable, they would be doing more than requesting they remove the post, they would have a solicitors letter in their hand by now.
They posted their experience on the company's website, if you fall short of the mark, you have to accept the bad reviews, or similar sites would place warning of good reviews only accepted.
