Yelp Sues Over Fake Law Firm Reviews

Crowdsource review site Yelp is going to court with a San Diego attorney the company says was posting fake positive reviews for his solo firm. Yelp claims that, in addition to posting fake reviews for his own firm, Julian McMillan was part of a group of lawyers who left positive reviews for one another. McMillan says he was targeted after he took Yelp to court earlier this year over ad sales, and reached out to other small businesses upset with Yelp with an eye to representing them.
