What consumer protection lawyers do in Massachusetts

Consumer protection lawyers help people who were cheated or harassed by businesses — car dealers, lenders, debt collectors, credit bureaus and sellers of defective products. Federal laws like the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act, along with state lemon laws, give consumers powerful remedies.

Many consumer protection statutes require the business to pay the consumer’s attorney fees if the consumer wins, which makes representation accessible.
