A young university student who gave a one-star review of a high-profile criminal law firm despite never having been a client has been sued for $300,000.
Queensland-based firm Nyst Legal sued Jaimyn Mayer, 23, along with search engine giant Google over the review - which was blank apart from the one-star rating.
The law firm, run by Chris Nyst and his son Brendan, launched a defamation action in the Brisbane District Court in August 2020 shortly after the review was posted.
