Konnerth Defamation and Egret Deceptive Advertising
February 5, 2025
Merrimack Group is aware that Ted Konnerth has published defamatory statements about Merrimack on social media. Merrimack can confirm the accuracy and authenticity of the information it publishes on its website and social media sites, and Merrimack has incontrovertible evidence that Konnerth knew that his disparaging comments were untrue.
Merrimack has initiated legal action against Konnerth for defamation, and against his company Egret, Inc. for deceptive advertising. Merrimack is also defending against Egret’s contract dispute on the basis of Egret's nonperformance.
Egret provided sales and marketing services to Merrimack’s lighting practice prior to launching an independent M&A advisory firm under the assumed name of Egret Advisors.
