Simply take him to small claims court and deal with it there - I assume you had a contract - invoice etc that he acknowledges he received?

Slander is spoken, libel is written. They both hinge on saying things that are untrue and that harm the person referenced.
Lee's chances of proving that, especially given his thread title, are slim to none and I'd say none's in the lead.
