Hartford Consumer Litigation Lawyers

30+ Years of Experience Handling Complex Commercial Cases in State & Federal Court

Many state and federal laws have been established in the U.S. to protect consumers. These laws began to be put into place as far back as the 1914 when the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) was created to oversee the matter of products and services presented to the public. In the years since, consumer protection laws have expanded to safeguard many areas of consumer activity in the U.S. When a consumer alleges that a company is not doing business correctly, whether through unfair, deceptive, or negligent practices, it can become an area of dispute that requires the services of a law firm experienced in consumer litigation defense.
