NATIONWIDE REPRESENTATION

Offices and location

Our attorneys have recovered millions of dollars from large companies through careful deliberation and a deep understanding of the problems our clients face by the hands of unscrupulous debt collectors and inaccurate credit reporting.

The Firm has single-handedly opened the internet to people suffering from visual impairments by ensuring that hundreds of companies nationwide update their websites to increase accessibility to the blind.

CONSUMER ATTORNEYS

Our Path To Victory

Consumer Attorneys’ lawyers are dedicated to getting consumers reimbursed for any aggravation and humiliation arising from a denial of a job or housing.

The lawyers will begin by seeing if the other parties are willing to reach a settlement. But some companies faced with the threat of a court battle may try to offer a settlement amount far below what a consumer deserves for their pain and suffering. Some may refuse to pay anything at all.

Our lawyers won’t let bad actors get off the hook without a fight. If an institution or company refuses to be held accountable for the injuries it inflicts, Consumer Attorneys’ lawyers will push hard for a judge to rule in your favor and award you just compensation.

If that proves to be unsuccessful, our lawyers will then demand that the matter go before a jury, which could result in an even larger payout for the consumer.

LAW FIRM CONSUMER ATTORNEYS

Legal Representation You Can Trust

We get it - taking an employer or a big company to court seems like a nearly impossible task. A court battle can be draining and it could be months or even years before a consumer sees the compensation they deserve.

But that doesn’t mean plaintiffs should suffer financial pain for taking the prudent step of hiring an attorney. Consumer Attorneys will not take a dime from a client to take on their case until it reaches a settlement or the case is resolved in favor of the plaintiff.

CA agrees that the Exclusive Investigative Period may not extend beyond 180 days without your prior written consent.

At any time between the date of this agreement and the expiration of CA’s Exclusive Investigative Period, CA may inform you of the outcome of its investigation. If CA’s investigation reveals that you have an actional consumer law claim, CA may ask you to sign a formal retainer agreement. If CA’s investigation does not reveal an actionable consumer law claim, you will receive an e-mail that states CA will not represent you in any further pursuit of your potential claim(s).

The relationship between you and CA automatically terminates at 5pm on the 180th day of the Exclusive Investigative Period or your receipt of CA’s written notice to decline representation, whichever comes sooner. At the conclusion of the Exclusive Investigative Period or upon receipt of CA’s written declination of representation, you are permitted to seek alternative legal counsel without penalty.

You agree to provide all relevant information, communications, documents, materials, and all other similar instruments to CA and its representatives during the Exclusive Investigative Period. You understand that your failure to provide all relevant information, communications, documents, and materials to CA during the Exclusive Investigative Period may hinder, delay or otherwise frustrate CA’s investigation of your potential consumer law claim(s).

Practice Areas

This includes common mistakes like clerical errors, mixed credit reports, false deceased designations, and reporting old information (like a bankruptcy). Credit reporting errors lead to things like being denied a mortgage, refinancing, personal loan, or car loan; losing out on a job, apartment, or vacation rental; being rejected for insurance, lines of credit, or store cards; or being barred from getting the best interest rates and loan terms.

Our experienced background check error attorneys help you fight back when you lose out on opportunities due to inaccurate, misleading, or false information in a background check report or tenant screening report. This includes things like false criminal information, misreporting the classification of charges, duplicate criminal entries, failing to indicate dropped charges, and reporting expunged/sealed convictions. Background check errors lead to things like being rejected as a new hire, denied a promotion, blocked from a security clearance, fired from a current job, or denied rental opportunities. They're a problem in the ride-share, store shopper, and personal shopper industries. See more
Our experienced identity theft attorneys help you fight back against the wide variety of consumer reporting mistakes that happen following identity theft. While you may be able to pursue criminal charges against identity thieves, you are frequently left without options for cleaning up your financial accounts and credit reports. If you’ve filed notices, disputed unauthorized activity, and challenged false loans and fraudulent accounts, but financial institutions and credit bureaus keep including wrongful data in your consumer reports, there are laws that protect you. Some legal options are time-sensitive, so it is important to act quickly to enforce your rights. See more
Our experienced debt collection harassment attorneys help you fight back against debt collectors and debt collection agencies who (1) aggressively pursue you for payments on personal, medical, or household debts based on misleading, inaccurate, or false information, (2) pursue you for debts in a manner that is in direct defiance of the clearly established debt collection laws, (3) attempt to collect debts on medical bills arising out of covered workers' compensation or Medicaid claims, or (4) use intimidation tactics like falsely implying that a debt must be paid by you immediately, in contradiction to the facts and the law. See more
Our experienced employment discrimination attorneys help you fight back against illegal treatment at your workplace. Employment discrimination is targeting or preferring employees based on their status as a member of a protected group (or “class”) rather than their work performance, talent, or experience. Protected classes include categories such as age, race, sex, gender, disability, marital status, military status (including veteran status), pregnancy, national origin or ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation. Employment discrimination can be direct (targeted actions or preferences) or indirect (policies with an unfair impact on one class). Knowing what counts as discrimination involves a nuanced factual and legal analysis. See more
Our experienced labor and employment dispute attorneys help you fight back against workplace exploitation and disputes that arise out of your rights as an employee. This includes employee abuses such as unpaid or underpaid minimum wages, failing to pay overtime, forcing employees to work in unsafe conditions, refusing meal or rest breaks, ignoring workplace health and safety standards, unfairly denying family and medical leave, and more. While exploitative and illegal labor practices occur in every industry, some of the highest incidences of overtime and minimum wage disputes occur in food service, retail, home care, janitorial services, and construction.

Some of the most common workplace injuries include injuries to the back, neck, head, or brain, repetitive strain injuries (like carpal tunnel syndrome), and burns or chemical exposures. Workers’ compensation is supposed to cover the costs of medical expenses, lost wages, vocational rehab, and death benefits. When employers and insurance companies try to avoid the legal obligation to pay by denying coverage, working with an attorney can make the difference between getting better or going broke. See more
