Consumer rights lawyers protect consumers from fraud and unfair trade practices

These attorneys also safeguard consumers from overly aggressive debt collectors, mistakes made on consumer credit reports, consumers who purchase defective products, including vehicles that turned out to be lemons, and sellers that refuse to honor their warranties and promises.
