I'm involved in a lawsuit where the plaintiff has stated that I commited acts of forgery, when I have definitive proof that:the signature is his. His signature has been verified and now I want to sue him for slander.

Like in any lawsuit, you need a minimum of facts plus damages. For slander, you identify the person who spoke badly of you, what they said, who they said it to, you also need two important things, one is to establish that what was said was not true, and finally, you need to show that you were damaged by the slander. No one can sue for anything if they did not suffer for damages. If this person who allegedly slandered you was someone nobody believed or if whatever he said just slipped by and caused you no damage business-wise or financially, just upset you, you have no case.

If you have an attorney in this case, have him represent you and file suit. Cases involving slander don't attract much interest by attorneys. The hard part is showing monetary damages.
