Representing Victims of Revenge Pornography

Revenge porn—the nonconsensual publication or sharing of sexual images or videos—is a topic that has received a great deal of attention in the media and in the courthouse. Lawyers are often asked by victims for help in getting unwanted content removed from social media sites and from the hands of private parties but find their state has no prohibition against the activity. Websites may assert First Amendment rights to publish the content, and law enforcement agencies often do not take complaints seriously. This course will provide concrete methods to obtain relief on behalf of your clients.

Join Oscar Michelen, a New York litigator who has helped dozens of revenge porn victims, as he shares successful tactics and information on states that offer legislative protection for victims. He also highlights the various means to help victims in states without specific legislative protection.
