CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WXYZ) — A Macomb County woman is being sued after leaving a negative Yelp review for a local company.

"This is not good customer service to sue customers for posting bad reviews," said attorney Clarence Dass who is representing Lisa Agostino in a lawsuit over a review she left on Yelp for North Wind Heating and Air Conditioning.

The company is suing Agostino claiming she "published false and defamatory statements."

The lawsuit was filed a week after Agostino wrote the review in which she claimed she was being overcharged for a capacitor for her air conditioner.

North Wind is seeking over $25,000 in damages for what they said in the lawsuit has been a loss of six or more potential customers a day.

"I thought it was a complete abuse of the court system because people have a first amendment right to express their views on the internet as long as it doesn't incite violence and that's the last thing she was trying to do," Dass told 7 Action News.

The attorney representing the company issued the following statement to 7 Action News:
