Houston Consumer Litigation Lawyers Who Will Fight in Your Corner!

In today’s world, your rights as a consumer are at risk due to deceptive trade practices and other situations where you could be taken advantage of by a business. A wide range of potential harm may occur if a business decides to engage in unethical practices at the expense of your rights. Typically done to increase profits, these often-illegal acts may entitle you to compensation.

If you have been the subject of a customer rights violation, an experienced Houston consumer litigation lawyer is ready to represent your best interests. Schedule a meeting with us today to determine how to proceed with your case.

What are Consumer Rights in Houston?

State law protects customers from certain types of illegal practices. These protections are not found in a single statute, but are instead found across the statutory code. Different types of conduct by businesses may be illegal or violate a duty of care owed to the consumer.

Sometimes, plaintiffs are unsure if their rights were violated. If a plaintiff does not know if they have a viable claim, they should contact a qualified consumer protection attorney in Houston to assess their situation and determine whether they may be entitled to significant financial award.

Types of Customer Protection Lawsuits

Certain types of cases arise from violations by businesses across the state and nation. If certain violations occur, there are statutes designed to protect the customer and their individual rights.

State Deceptive Trade Practices

Nearly every state has its own customer protection laws. In Texas, it is called the Deceptive Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Act. This law is meant to protect plaintiffs from false, misleading, or deceptive practices. Many situations fit into this wide-ranging definition.

The statute permits plaintiffs to recover economic damages due to any violations of the act, including attorney’s fees and costs. It also allows for recovery of non-economic damages such as humiliation or mental anguish. A claimant’s recovery could even be tripled in value if the acts were committed knowingly or intentionally by the business for deceptive purposes.

Federal Consumer Protection Act Lawsuits

Certain federal laws interact with state law and provide additional protections. One such federal law is the Magnusson-Moss Warrant Act. This law protects and governs warranties on consumer products. Violations of this law and other federal statutes can result in substantial damages.

Common Law Claims

Many other claims also exist if a business attempts to take advantage of a consumer. These may include, but are not limited to:

  • Lawsuits for fraud or deception
  • Breach of contract claims
  • Breach of warranty claims
  • Intentional or negligent misrepresentations
  • Unjust enrichment

Common law claims operate under state law and are best handled by a licensed customer litigation attorney in Houston.

Investigating and Proving a Customer Claim

A thorough investigation of the facts in a case is necessary to prove any violations against a customer. Infractions perpetrated by these companies should not go unanswered. With the assistance of qualified Houston injury attorneys, a plaintiff may have their case reviewed to determine whether a successful consumer protection claim may be possible.

Analyzing the unique situation alongside state and federal law may reveal a successful strategy to pursue a business.

Speak to a Houston Consumer Litigation Attorney Right Away

Violations of your rights should be rectified as soon as possible. A lawsuit may prevent any future violations and may earn you substantial compensation for your troubles. An experienced Houston consumer litigation lawyer could fight for your rights. Contact our office today to learn more.
