Consumer Protection
Standing between Californians and businesses that overreach.
From car dealers to debt collectors, we take on the businesses that count on ordinary people not fighting back — and we recover statutory damages, penalties, and fees on our clients' behalf.
What it means
Consumer protection, in plain English.
State and federal consumer statutes give ordinary people leverage against businesses that overreach — auto dealers, debt collectors, credit reporters, and lenders. Many of these laws provide statutory damages and require the business to pay attorneys' fees when it loses.
The conduct
The dealer, collector, or reporter did something the statute prohibits.
The paper trail
Contracts, letters, call logs, and credit reports that prove it.
The remedy
Statutory damages, actual damages, and — often — attorneys' fees paid by them.
