Is it legal to use the names of people in a review?

If I wanted to post a review of an auto-mechanic, is it legal for me to include the names of the mechanic, the service advisor and the service manager, or is that a violation of their privacy rights?

you should get their permission first then continue. thats the only way to be sure

I wouldn't do that. Could be seen as slander if it is negative.

Just use the job titles.

so long as you're not saying things that aren't untrue, then you have every right to post your opinions, using their names. however, be prepared that if you post anything negative, and they have the ability to find out who you are, they could possibly retaliate...

as even though *harrassment* is illegal, it often follows when people are publically criticized and feel that their reputation is on the line.
