There are a number of California and federal laws that protect consumers and businesses against unfair business practices. Parties on all sides of these cases have rights that need to be considered, and having the right legal representation behind you can help to ensure a favorable outcome.
At Contreras Law Firm, our San Diego business law attorneys represent individuals and businesses in a wide array of cases involving various unfair business practices and other business law concerns. We understand the dishonest tactics that businesses use to gain customers and defeat their competition, and we know the difference between true unfair business practices and a simple mistake. Our experience representing clients on all sides of these cases allows us to provide much more effective representation in every case.
False Advertising
In California, it is unlawful to engage in deceptive, false and misleading advertising involving the sale or disposition of real property, personal property or services. Any individual, business, government entity or organization that becomes aware of anyone disseminating false promises or engaging in other unfair business practices can bring a civil action to get a court order compelling the defendants to put a stop to the illegal activities.
Other Unfair Practices
Even if a particular business practice does not directly violate any specific law and does not involve deception, it can still be deemed unfair under the law. “Unfair” is broadly defined by California’s Unfair Competition Act. The courts have a great deal of discretion to consider the facts of each case and decide whether a particular business practice is harmful to consumers and the business climate as a whole.
