Some of our current class action cases or investigations
include: - Samsung Refrigerator
nationwide class action lawsuit, Smith v Samsung Electronics, Case #5-12-cv-15509,U.S.
District Court for Eastern District of Michigan. Allegations include that new refrigerators equipped with defective parts
preventing proper function of drainage of excess condensation resulting in accumulation of water inside food storage compartment;
- iPhone & Blackberry wireless subscribers with internet access plans charged illegal
sales tax by AT&T;
- Galeos
"LowFat" Miso Ceaser Salad Dressing Our investigation shows each
serving has over 6gms fat, far more than the label representation of 1gm. This deceives consumers into paying for a supposedly
"low fat" product where the product in the bottle is not the same as the product described on the label;
- Kroger
Pet Food Recall--recall of contaminated pet food for Aflotoxin
contamination. If you have purchased and used one of the listed products and wish to discuss participation in a consumer
class action, please contact us (see affected product list set forth under our website tab entitled "Kroger Pet Food
Recall").
- Levine,
et al v American Psychological Association, U.S. District Court of District of Columbia, Case No: 10-01780--Class
action lawsuit on behalf of members of American Psychological Association for restitution of fraudulent special assessments
charged by professional association.
- Auto extended warranty Vehicle Service Contracts--shorting cancellation
refunds by hundreds of dollars. These contracts sold to owners of used vehicles often provide very poor coverage for mechanical
problems. When consumers discover this they often exercise their right to cancel and receive a pro rated refund, but the providers
have been shorting these refunds by hundreds of dollars for alleged "interest' charges or "marketing"fees".
Some of the providers go under the following names:
Dealers Warranty, Mogi,
U.S. Fidelis,
Warranty America, Warranty Finance - Dell Laptops--new laptops with refurbished
hard drives. Consumers have reported that new Dell laptops came factory equipped with refurbished hard drive.
When consumers opened up back panel and popped out hard drive the DPN number printed on the hard drive was for a refurbished
hard drive rather than a new hard drive;
HP LAPTOP FAILURE--Many consumers have complained that certain HP laptops have
experienced overheating and power cord failures, and in some cases possible danger of fire. The HP Pavilion laptops include
the following series: dv, zd, ze, zt, zv and zx. - T.V. Early Termination Fees--investigating claims that satellite and cable providers
charge unfair fixed early termination fees
- defective or dangerous consumer products;
- improper fees for consumer services;
- dangerous
weight loss supplements;
- phony dietary products
We have many years of experience investigating and pursuing a variety of
consumer class actions, including automobile defects, dangerous dietary supplements, and phony product claims. These
are usually claims which do not involve enough money individually to justify legal action, but which may be pursued if done
as a class action where one or two or three victims act as representatives for thousands or millions of similar victims. Some
of our successful class actions have concerned : If you have been the victim of a defective product or consumer scam which you think has also
harmed a large number of other consumers it may be grounds to pursue a class action. Please contact us to discuss the
matter free of charge. Ask
for Mark Baumkel, the attorney in charge of our injury and consumer division. Most of our cases are filed as the result of
