Lowenstein Sandler consumer fraud litigators are uniquely positioned to help clients defeat unwarranted legal actions, particularly those brought under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act (NJCFA). New Jersey's consumer protection laws have been increasingly used by plaintiffs' attorneys to bring damaging class action lawsuits against companies operating in New Jersey or selling to New Jersey residents. Targets of these lawsuits face mandatory treble damages if they lose and may sometimes be liable for attorneys’ fees even if they win.
Companies encountering this level of threat to their business need a legal team that brings extensive experience to the case. Our lawyers have served as counsel of record in several precedent-setting decisions curbing the reach of the NJCFA and our firm appeared in nearly every significant consumer fraud decision in the state during the past decade.
Lowenstein Sandler attorneys deeply understand the elements of consumer fraud liability, how to assemble the facts of a case to effectively combat all allegations and whether class claims can be proven by common evidence. It is this comprehensive knowledge that sets our firm apart from others, and can mean the difference between facing a class action and having that action quashed before it starts.
