Every day, consumers in Pennsylvania fall victim to schemes and scams or are tricked or trapped by unscrupulous businesses and sales people. Whether buying a car, a house or other consumer goods, or hiring services, consumers often find themselves being cheated. Pennsylvania has tough consumer protection statutes such as the Lemon Law, the Odometer Fraud Law and the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, just to name a few, to help consumers achieve justice when a transaction goes bad. Many of these consumer protection statutes allow recovery of attorneys' fees and costs as well as enhanced damages which can make litigation of these cases more affordable for the consumer and more expensive for the offending businesses. At MacElree Harvey, our attorneys are skilled in consumer law litigation as well as many related practice areas in which a consumer was damaged due to an unfair or deceptive act or practice. We have the knowledge and experience needed to fight for the rights of our clients. |
