It is a known fact that this Mr Broadbelt has sent out "cease and desist" letters from other lawyers from around the country to a number of persons who have spoken out about Mr Broadbelt.
it has been reported that the lawyer/s never got paid for their services.
In one case a letter was sent from Mr Broadbelt also claiming that a lawyer from Sydney was also requesting that another radio personality cease and desist, the lawyer in question was contacted and he denied any knowledge of Mr Broadbelt and this lawyer has since sent a letter to Mr Broadbelt to cease and desist from making counterfeit letters using his business name.
I hope that Bateman’s Bay legal firm, Bayside Lawyers have better luck in getting paid for their services.
Mr Broadbelt’s proceedings against anyone will be hollow as in the past, defamatory" allegations have to be untrue for a case to be brought against anyone.
Oh dear, Peter. What are you thinking? Giving this individual a larger profile? Unless this story is written in a thoughtful way in which more than this person can benefit from it, it will not be viewed positively by many.
Friends working in law often say that defamation action swings between the extremes of rich man's sport to that of intimidation against the vulnerable (often both).
To pursue a civil proceeding of defamation is not a cheap. Litigation is costly, the legislation ensures a costly amount of time in court and leading up to it.
Maybe you should check out Broadbelt’s story to see if infact he has engaged the Bateman’s Bay legal firm, Bayside Lawyers, first reports coming back from this business are suggesting that they don’t have a Broadbelt on their list of clients
Mr Broadbelt has in the past counterfeited letters from other legal business.
