You can file a defamation case, however, if the other matrimonial issues (with your wife) are involved in this. Then you are advised to go before the family court. The defamation, if done verbally, becomes difficult to prove. If it is in the form of a publication (written document) can be proved easily. Details of entire dispute are required to advise you regarding possible legal options. If you need any further information and assistance kindly contact me through lawrato. Regards, Adv.
