I hire a lawyer, they submit a takedown request to FB or TikTok or wherever else they’re using my identity, now what?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but if someone lives across the world and is doing all this impersonation online, what legal recourse does a lawyer have access to? Drag them to The Hague?
I’ve been in cases before where someone in a different continent is trying to impersonate or sink you, and I can say in my experience there’s little a Canadian lawyer could have done.

- rkagerer 4y agoTrue it's more difficult cross-jurisdiction. Especially if the country doesn't have a robust legal system. I've had a lawyer hire another lawyer in said jurisdiction to help with enforcement across borders.
