Ben Stirling, all I can say is Thank you!!! I was up against a large DMV car dealership that wanted to treat me a throw away with no resolution on my own. I made that call to his office and ben accepted the case. Ben stepped in and fought for me from day one and never stopped until we won the case 2 years later. Very pleasant and friendly, kept me updated on every inch of the case. My attorney for LIFE!!!

5 star above and beyond what I could have ever imagined during a very rough period after a horrific accident, Ben Stirling not only represented me but cared for my well being when I could not do for myself. From day one meeting for the first time he made sure I was comfortable explaining the process and found a way to address any concerns I had for a good outcome. Very patient & kind. He often went out of his way assisting me when not well connecting with me if impossible when I could not get to him. He reassures you that he will try his utmost best to provide you with a high level of expertise like no other and he did not disappoint. Always on top of his game, very professional, compassionate & on time with a smile on his face. If he says it, he stands by it. Never expected what I received in compensation. The staff continued to lend a helping hand whenever possible in a friendly and caring atmosphere. I am very, very satisfied with Ben and have highly recommended he and the law firm to others. If you connect with him you won't go wrong. Look him up, check him out!!!!!!!!!

This was our second time purchasing a home with her legal counsel and we'll plan on continuing to use her every time down the road. She may be the only person I've come across who's responding to emails quicker than I am at 11PM. We can't recommend her highly enough.

Mr. Lepore is the definition of an excellent lawyer. My father passed away in 2019. My cousin, a local lawyer, who drafted my father's will, claimed he didn't remember he made it. Faced with obstruction, I did my research and found that Mr. Lepore is highly rated. I was not disappointed. The process was needlessly long because of my cousin's lack of cooperation, and delayed because of the Covid-19 crisis, however, I was armed to the teeth in proof and with Mr. Lepore's dedication, knowledge and skill we were able to honor my father's final wishes and have the Probate Court rule in my favor as my father's only child, executor and beneficiary. I recommend Louis Lepore wholeheartedly. A quiet man, he has a keen analytical mind and a determined sense of dedication. I will be making an appointment soon to make my own will and estate planning.

Absolutely AWESOME legal help from Young Walgenkim of Hansen & Walgenkim - Lemon Law attorneys in Oregon. https://www.isuecardealers.com/ I called two other Oregon attorneys about a YOYO scam I got stuck in buying a used car in Portland and didn't know how to get out of - neither bothered to return my call. I got a return call from Hansen & Walgenkim a few days after leaving a msg briefly explaining my situation and that I was trying to end it without losing more money (I'd put $1700 into a car that became double the Apr and over $125 more per month in loan costs from what I initially agreed to I.e. YOYO scam. His nice paralegal took my info, he got back to me and offered to advise me on what my legal rights were and what I should do to not be victimized by the scam shop Lot 99 LLC further. So nice! And, he also was going to help, if his final decision after receiving all my documents/communications was that he would be able to, at no cost to me since I am low income. SUPER nice! THANKS to Young's help the SCAM YOYO dealership in Portland Lot 99 LLC backed down and RETURNED my $1k loan deposit when I returned the car. VERY happy to have had his assistance with this issue, and did not have to go to court. Thank you Young!

I consulted with Mr. Walgenkim for a consumer fraud case regarding a car dealer/broker, and all I can say is, I wish he had taken my case. He is very straight forward and he will take his time to make sure you understand whether you have the case or not to move forward. It doesn't get better than him as an attorney, and believe me if there was a 10 Star rating on Avvo, he would get that 10 Star from me! If you have a consumer fraud case in the State of Oregon then Mr. Walgenkim is the one, period.

Hands down Young Walgenkim Hanson & Walgenkim, LLC is the most reputable law office I've ever had the pleasure to work with. If you ever need an trustworthy, genuine lawyer, with the highest level of passion for justice in resolving a case on consumer protection, YOU ARE VISITING THE RIGHT SITE IN THIS MOMENT! Young Walgenkim AND his associates are THE crème of the crop! After two unsuccessful consultations, I was led to Young. What really gravitated me to call him was the compliments about his professionalism from previous clients and HIS peers on the web. What really sold me to hire Young, was our first meeting. He and his associates are very real, up front and genuine with much integrity to resolve a case. I felt his desire to protect consumers. To protect me in my case. My case was very complicated. Many participants, large and small businesses, but this did not deter his interest in my case. He made no promises up front he couldn't deliver (Oh like, perhaps the salesman, that landed me in a situation to need a lawyer in the first place). His approach, which I found refreshing, was to keep me involved every step of the way. He educates, then advises the different solutions with outcomes. His personal approach in advisement, allowed me to be in full control of decisions, but what ultimately won my case was his direction. He never takes the easy way out, he's very methodical for the best outcome for your overall protection.

Recommended to anyone in debt over their head!! Emily is the best for many reasons. 1. She charges a flat rate. Many attorneys charge for a percent of the debt. In my case this would have costed me thousands more than what I paid Emily. 2 She is the most knowledgeable person I know and I've spoken to other attorneys who understand the rules but not as good as Emily. 3 she's gotten me much more than I can ever imagine on cases where I owed debt. Because of her knowledge of the law and rules against the way certain letters are worded, she has gotten me money on these cases. I would recommend Emily to anyone dealing with debt or financial hardship. She's amazing

Craig sent one demand letter for me. They must have Googled him and realized he's not someone they want to mess with because they responded to his demand letter very quickly and made me a generous offer.

My husband just died. He left me various tasks to do for him. There is a problem that prevents me to do one of the tasks. It is about tax. I am not really sure who can I trust, who can I ask. I prayed hard for solution. Then one sleepless night, I was in the front of my computer. I googled " Tax Lawyer near me". The very first name came out was his. I read the reviews . He is their saint and savior! And then I thought he could be my savior too. I hit my keyboards and started to email him. I told him what bothers me. I sought for his professional advice... Hit send and went to sleep consoling and telling myself not to expect and that he may not waste his time to me. I was wrong, on the second day I got email from him saying " Please call me ". I was so surprised and relieved . He is very accommodating, professional and very straight forward . He taught me what to do and even guide me how to do my solution. He spent time and double checked if am doing it right. What a man! He doesn't know me but he accommodated me and didn't take anything in return. Since then, I spread the news. Telling anyone to get this lawyer if they will have problems in tax. Not all heroes wear capes !!

With many attorneys, they cause the problems so when the solve the problem, they look like the hero. In the case of Dave, he just gets the job done without any drama. Buying a home is stressful enough. You do not need your attorney adding more stress. Dave gets you to the finish line in a professional way.

Steven is amazing!!! The most helpful and knowledgeable attorney I've ever dealt with. He was also extremely kind. How often do you find that in a lawyer? Never you say. Well, you've found it with Steven! If he's not in the office getting on the phone with you immediately then he's returning you phone call very promptly. He helped me out with a horrid RV dealership and deal gone bad. Thank you, Steven!

What a relief to find someone so knowledgeable and helpful when you feel like you have reached the end of your rope. I have tried everything on my own to no avail. One phone call to Nancy and we not only have a game plan, but she is very open to what we may or may not accomplish. Don't try to do this on your own when you can find help for a very nominal fee.

I have the pleasure to call Raizel a friend and colleague. I have known her for over 10 years and can confidently say she is a zealous advocate for her clients. As prosecutors, we were in division together, and I can attest that she was always prepared and ready to work hard. We also tried jury trials together, and she is a talented and skilled trial lawyer. I do not hesitate to recommend Raizel to my family and friends!

After interviewing several attorneys, I decided to retain Raizel, and I am very glad I did. As an attorney myself, although not practicing in insurance law, I needed someone with the expertise to handle my case, and Raizel proved to be the consummate professional. Raizel supported me every step of the way. She was thorough in explaining my options and understood how crucial resolving the issues was for me. She took the time to understand who I was and what was important to me, always making herself available when I called. I had been waiting for more than a year for my insurance company to pay a fair amount for damages due to Hurricane Ian. When it was time to negotiate, Raizel was tenacious and unwavering. I cannot recommend Raizel highly enough. Her dedication, expertise, and unwavering support make her an exceptional attorney who will fight for you every step of the way.

What a Consumer Protection Lawyer Can Do for You

A consumer protection lawyer specializes in safeguarding individuals from unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent business practices. These lawyers advocate for the rights of consumers in disputes with businesses, helping clients recover damages related to fraud, defective products, false advertising, or violation of consumer protection laws. They work to enforce laws that prevent businesses from taking advantage of consumers and ensure that businesses adhere to fair practices.

Whether you’ve been the victim of a scam, sold a faulty product, or misled by false advertising, a consumer protection lawyer can help you navigate legal options and pursue justice.

When Should I Hire a Consumer Protection Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a consumer protection lawyer when you’ve encountered unfair or illegal business practices and need legal assistance to resolve the situation. Common scenarios include:

  • Fraud or deceptive business practices: If a company misled you into purchasing a product or service under false pretenses, a lawyer can help you seek compensation.
  • Defective products: If you purchased a product that was unsafe or defective and caused harm, a lawyer can help you file a product liability claim.
  • False advertising or unfair pricing: A lawyer can assist if you were misled by deceptive advertising or charged for services or products in a way that violates consumer laws.
  • Debt collection harassment: If you're being harassed by debt collectors or are facing illegal debt collection practices, a consumer protection lawyer can enforce your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
  • Credit report issues: If errors on your credit report are affecting your financial standing, a lawyer can help you resolve disputes with credit reporting agencies or creditors under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
  • Predatory lending practices: If you've been subjected to unfair loan terms or practices by payday lenders or mortgage companies, a lawyer can help you challenge the loan and seek a resolution.
  • Data breaches or identity theft: If your personal information was compromised due to a company’s failure to protect your data, a lawyer can help you recover damages related to the breach.

What Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Do?

A consumer protection lawyer provides a wide range of services to help protect consumers' rights and seek compensation for harms caused by businesses. Their role may include:

  • Filing lawsuits: Representing clients in lawsuits against businesses that have violated consumer protection laws, whether through fraud, deceptive practices, or negligence.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with businesses or their insurers to negotiate fair compensation for damages caused by unfair practices or defective products.
  • Pursuing class action lawsuits: When a company harms multiple consumers, a lawyer can represent a group of plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit, seeking collective damages.
  • Advising on consumer rights: Helping clients understand their rights under various consumer protection laws and advising on the best course of action.
  • Handling product liability claims: Representing clients who have been injured by defective products and holding manufacturers or retailers accountable for the harm caused.
  • Defending against debt collection harassment: Enforcing the rights of consumers under the FDCPA and other laws that protect individuals from abusive or unlawful debt collection tactics.
  • Resolving credit report disputes: Helping clients correct errors on their credit reports that may be causing financial harm or affecting their creditworthiness.

How Are Consumer Protection Lawyers Paid?

Consumer protection lawyers typically use different fee structures depending on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:

  • Contingency fee: For many consumer protection cases, such as class actions or product liability claims, lawyers may work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (typically between 25% and 40%) of the awarded amount.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex cases or ongoing legal disputes, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates can range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract or filing a small claim, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the necessary legal work.
  • Retainer fee: For clients needing ongoing legal assistance, some lawyers may charge a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on the case.

It’s important to discuss fees upfront with your lawyer to understand how you’ll be charged and to avoid unexpected costs.

How Much Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a consumer protection lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal service required. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fee cases: For cases handled on a contingency basis, the lawyer typically takes between 25% and 40% of any settlement or damages awarded.
  • Hourly rates: Hourly rates for consumer protection lawyers generally range from $150 to $500, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases involving complex legal issues.
  • Flat fees: For specific services like contract reviews or handling a small claims case, flat fees may range from $500 to $2,000, depending on the scope of work.
  • Class actions: In class action cases, fees are often paid out of the settlement or damages awarded, and individual plaintiffs usually do not have to pay upfront.

Make sure to ask for a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to avoid surprises and to understand how much you can expect to pay.

Top Questions to Ask a Consumer Protection Lawyer

Before hiring a consumer protection lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they have the experience and skills to handle your case effectively. Key questions include:

  1. What experience do you have with consumer protection law?
    Ensure the lawyer has specific experience handling cases like yours, whether it involves product liability, fraud, or debt collection issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or a contingency fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case.
  3. What is the likelihood of success for my case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and what outcome you can reasonably expect.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience dealing with similar legal issues, whether it’s credit report disputes, data breaches, or defective products.
  5. What is the timeline for resolving my case?
    While it can be difficult to predict exact timelines, the lawyer should give you a general idea of how long your case may take to resolve.
  6. Will you handle my case personally?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will be working on your claim.

How to Check the Credibility of a Consumer Protection Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable consumer protection lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Check for experience in consumer protection: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to confirm they specialize in consumer protection law and have handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their ability to handle consumer protection cases.
  • Look for industry affiliations: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Consumer Advocates (NACA) can indicate that the lawyer is committed to protecting consumer rights.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a consumer protection lawyer, come prepared with all relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Details of the product or service in question: Bring any purchase receipts, warranties, or contracts related to the product or service involved in your claim.
  • Documentation of your complaint: Provide evidence of your complaint, such as email exchanges with the company, photos of a defective product, or a timeline of events related to the dispute.
  • Communication with the business or debt collector: If you’ve communicated with the business or debt collector, bring copies of letters, emails, or phone logs.
  • List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes for your case.
  • Information on damages: Be prepared to discuss any financial losses or harm you’ve suffered as a result of the unfair business practices, including medical bills, lost wages, or emotional distress.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer understand your situation more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed with your case.
