Consumers are rarely experts on the products they utilize in everyday life. Whether we are prescribed medication
for an ailment or purchase a tube of toothpaste for a child, we expect these products to be free from defects
and safe for our consumption. Unfortunately, the potential risks of many products that are made widely available
to the public are not appropriately disclosed. In many cases, legal action is necessary at both a state and a
federal level in order to ensure that the same defects do not endanger others in the future. The consumer protection
attorneys at McCallion & Associates have extensive experience with consumer protection laws.
Fraudulent Charities
Aside from defective products, consumers are frequently deceived by charities regarding the use of their donations.
Fraudulent charities and scam artists rely on people's ignorance of the laws that protect them, and many victims of
fraud are unaware that they can recover much of their losses with the right consumer protection attorneys working
for them. The elderly are particularly vulnerable to con artists who operate over the telephone, and unfortunately,
in some of the worst cases, people have lost their entire life savings. This type of crime often goes unpunished
because the victim is embarrassed to admit he/she was "duped," or, in some cases, is unaware of any deception at all!
The longer the crime goes unreported, the less chance that the perpetrator will be forced to compensate the victims.
Thus, it is essential that victims of fraud or deceptive business practices immediately report their experiences to
one of our experienced consumer protection lawyers. Contact us today and one of the consumer protection attorneys at
McCallion & Associates will carefully review your case.
