Unfair and deceptive practices are prohibited by both state and
federal law. There are effective remedies, including triple damages
and payment by the defendant of a client's legal fees, if legal
advice is sought at an early stage.
Here are a few of the areas where legal action may be needed…
Home mortgage loan problems are especially prevalent with so-called subprime loans to higher-risk borrowers. Predatory behavior by these
lenders is not uncommon.
Our region is the home of some of the nation's largest
check-cashing
services and
vehicle title lenders. They are permitted to charge
annual interest that is exorbitant, but they are not always content
with what is lawful.
Wrongful foreclosure or repossession can
occur, and there are ways to defend against it if you contact an
attorney as soon as it is threatened. Foreclosure takes only 22 days
to complete.
Motor vehicle fraud
is one of the most common problems, and we will litigate when it
occurs.
Stock, bond, and commodity brokerage account
disagreements can sometimes be resolved by negotiation without
securities arbitration (which is usually required by contacts) or
litigation.
Consumer arbitration is an expensive,
prolonged, and unfair process that we usually seek to avoid but will
utilize in exceptional cases.
You can expect us to assist you by:
·Providing
rigorous analysis of what often are unusually intricate problems.
·Giving
staunch representation in cases that are complex and hard-fought.
