Keeping Business Honest Using Class Action Lawsuits
Consumers trust businesses to be honest and to honor what they promise, when they do not, the consumer feels frustrated. The consumer feels cheated even if it did not involve a lot of money and feel they were treated unfairly. When this occurs the consumer does have options, like a class action lawsuit.
Consumer Justice
The consumer that feels they have been treated unfairly can consult with Ehline Law attorneys that handle consumer fraud claims. When a consumer is faced with fraud in the market place, there are usually other consumers that have faced this injustice and that can be the start of a class action lawsuit. The class action lawsuit can hold the business accountable for their actions that made the consumer feel cheated.
Warranties or Breach Warranties
A warranty is when a product comes with a guarantee from the manufacturer or one purchased from the retailer that it if the product fails it will be repaired or replaced depending on the terms of the warranty. The consumer expects the manufacturer or retailer to abide by the terms of the warranty.
Hidden Costs
Hidden costs can also be known as bait and switch in certain cases, this is when there is a deal for a product and when the product is paid for or ready to be paid for there are extra charges or a different price than the consumer was lead to believe they would pay. When a company fails to deliver there can be excuses or they can even inform the consumer they have done something that makes it their fault, rather than the companies. When this occurs it will happen to more than one consumer and this pattern of business tactics is fraud. The way consumers can hold the company responsible for their fraudulent business practices is the consumers standing together with a class action lawsuit.
