All communication is language. Language is made of words.

Careless use of words and terms not only spoil good will but also crease difficulties for the writer. Improper of language and tone may win or lose friends and customers. In communication it is wisdom of words that counts. Like other social and political activities, business dealings are also governed by certain laws and rules. Laws are made for man. In communication the writer must be careful about using correct and proper words; other wise it may result in law suits and litigation. Business Communication is a kind of communication which is used by a company for the promotion of its products, services or organization itself. It is also used to relay information within and outside the organization as well as to deal with the legal and public issues. It is very important for the organization since it holds legal value. Any communication done by the company must be according to the laws of that country so that they company remains safe. Anything that is not acceptable to the law could create problems for the company. In business right use of language wins friends, but it may also take out money from your pocket through carelessness. So beware of law suits and litigation. Mind your language and take care of legal aspects of business communication. The most common legal terms related to term dealing are: a. Fraud, b. Defamation, c. invasion of privacy, d. other areas of encroachment. Fraud and fraudy are commonly heard words. In general sense fraud means obtaining material advantage by unfair or wrongful means. The sort consisting of false and derogatory statements regarding another without lawful justification. No action can be maintained for slander or libel unless there be a publication that is a communication of defendant of defamatory statement. What is defamation? Defamation is communication about a person that tends to hurt the person's reputation. It can be spoken, which is called slander, Or it can be written, which is called libel. It can also be a gesture, which is a type of slander. The law protects your reputation against defamation. If someone defames you, you can sue them to pay money (called damages ) for harming your reputation. You have to sue in

Supreme Court and you have to sue within 2 years of the defamation. The law doesn't protect you from a personal insult or a remark that injures only your pride; it protects reputation, not feelings. So if someone calls you a lazy slob, you might be hurt, but you probably don't have a good reason to sue. What is libel? Libel is the type of defamation with a permanent record, like a newspaper, a letter, a website posting, an email, a picture, or a radio or TV broadcast. If you can prove that someone libeled you, and that person does not have a good defence, then a court will presume that you suffered damages and award you money to pay for your damaged reputation. But going to Supreme Court is expensive and even if you win, you may not get as much as it costs you to sue. In deciding on damages, the Court will consider your position in the community. For example, if you are a professional, damages may be higher. What is slander? Slander is the type of defamation with no permanent record. Normally it's a spoken statement. It can also be a hand gesture or something similar. The law treats slander differently than libel: with slander, you have to prove you suffered damages, in the form of financial loss, to get compensation. But with libel, the law presumes you suffered damages. For example, say that Bill told John you were a cheat, and then John refused to do business with you because of that. You sue Bill and prove that you lost business with John because of what Bill said. Bill would have to pay you for the loss of John's business, but not for the general damage to your reputation. It can be very hard to prove this sort of financial loss. That's why most slander cases never go to court. What is invasion of privacy? Answer: Invasion of privacy is the intrusion into the personal life of another, without just cause, which can give the person whose privacy has been invaded a right to bring a lawsuit for damages against the person or entity that intruded. However, public personages are not protected in most situations, since they have placed themselves already within the public eye, and their activities (even personal and sometimes intimate) are considered newsworthy, i.e. of legitimate public interest. However, an otherwise non-public individual has a right to privacy from: a) intrusion on one's solitude or into one's private affairs; b) public disclosure of embarrassing private information; c) publicity which puts him/her in a false light to the public; d) appropriation of one's name or picture for personal or commercial advantage. Encroachment: 1) Invasion: any entry into an area not previously occupied; "an invasion of tourists"; "an invasion of locusts" 2) Trespass: entry to another's property without right or permission
