- Consumer Litigation

A relatively new area of law, consumer litigation is based on federal and state legislation geared to protecting the rights of individuals with legal problems rooted in consumer transactions, typically with large corporations. A wide range of consumer transactions can involve false, misleading or deceptive business conduct. Examples of common transactional disputes between businesses and individuals or a class of individuals involve: credit cards; credit reports; car warranty; car sales fraud; unlawful debt collection practices; landlord-tenant conflicts; foreclosure; truth in lending; unfair and deceptive practices; and usury.

- Deceptive Trade Practices

The state of Texas enacted the Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (DTPA) in 1973 as part of the Texas Business and Commerce Code. Intended “to protect consumers against false, misleading, and deceptive business and insurance practices, unconscionable actions, and breaches of warranty,” the DTPA offers legal recourse to consumers subjected to unscrupulous business practices.

- Bad Faith Insurance

When disaster strikes your home, health or automobiles, you expect your insurance company to assist you in pursuing a claim to set things right. The unfortunate truth is that even though you faithfully have paid your premiums, the company may fail to meet their fiduciary duty to you. You, the insured, may have the right to pursue an insurance bad faith claim if your insurance company fails to meet its contractual obligations by: denying claims covered under a policy; delaying payments unnecessarily; and failing to adequately pay a claim in full.

- Auto Dealer Fraud

To protect consumers from unscrupulous business and insurance practices, the state of Texas enacted the Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (DTPA) in 1973 as part of the Texas Business and Commerce Code. The DTPA offers legal recourse to consumers subjected to unscrupulous business practices, including: fraudulent vehicle repairs and services; theft protection; and extended warranties. If you purchased a vehicle or repair services under false pretenses or if the car or service was misrepresented, the DTPA authorizes recovery of all economic damages. In addition, a consumer may be entitled to recover all actual damages if the DTPA claim can be tied into other legislation.

- Credit and Finance Company Claims

The Dallas County Law Office of Christopher L. Davis, located in Addison, Texas, focuses a significant portion of its practice on consumer protection with an emphasis on holding credit card and finance companies accountable for illegal actions, including: fair debt collection practice violations; fair credit reporting violations; and false publication of private information. Credit card and finance companies are required to comply with state laws and the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). Texas State and federal laws do not erase the legitimate debt consumers owe, but rather set the parameters for how creditors and debt collectors can pursue what is owed to them.

- Qui Tam Claims

When you think of a hero, usually the image is of a soldier, a police officer or a firefighter. Although traditional heroes are often recognized and rewarded for their actions, other brave champions who rarely receive the recognition they deserve are the whistleblowers who work with the government in the fight against fraud. If you believe you have evidence of fraud against a government entity, an important first step is consulting an experienced attorney who can determine whether you have the basis for a Qui Tam claim and recommend appropriate legal action.

- Whistleblower Claims

Blowing the whistle on state and federal fraud and corruption can be a frightening experience, especially if one feels that his or her job may be at stake. However, it is illegal for employers to engage in retaliation against a whistle blowing employee. Further, there is a financial incentive for individuals to come forward. In reward for their brave actions, whistleblowers are entitled to share in revenue recovered from fraudulent actions against the government such as: filing false claims / invoices; illegal price gouging /overcharging / mischarging; and providing defective products and equipment.

- Serious Personal Injury

Personal injury is a broad area of law dealing with serious accidents or grave financial harm resulting from the negligence, reckless behavior or malpractice of another individual or entity.

- Car / Truck / Motorcycle Accidents

With major interstate highways and highly trafficked roadways, the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex serious car, truck and motorcycle accidents happen daily.

When you seek our help, we will take immediate action to document and preserve evidence related to the accident, from police reports to photographs of the scene and damage and information for all parties involved, including witness statements.

- Defamation / Libel / Slander

Advances in communication technology has unleashed new platforms and unlocked barriers for individuals to express opinions to a global audience. Instantly, reputations can be built or destroyed based on posts to message boards, blogs, social networking sites and other Internet forums. Written and spoken defamation can have long-lasting effects on the character and reputation of companies and individuals. If you have experienced character assault and reputation damage due to spoken, printed or broadcasts of false statements, you may have the right to pursue legal action against liable parties.

- Unjust Prosecution and Wrongful Imprisonment

Malicious prosecution is a civil action to recover financial compensation for the harm suffered and for the costs associated with having to defend against a baseless civil or criminal case. This legal action may be brought against the person or parties who took an active role in initiating or encouraging the original case. A serious civil or criminal charge brought against you is likely to have long-term repercussions. Whether you were unjustly labeled a criminal or were wrongly accused of breaking the law, the damage to your good name and to your pocketbook is nearly irreversible, even if case has no merit and you are proven innocent. From being forced to incur defense-related costs and court fees to spending time in jail, life as you knew it has changed. However, if charges prove baseless in court and you are vindicated, you may have the legal right to hold your accusers legally accountable for the damage caused to your reputation and to your wallet.

- Commercial Litigation

Commercial litigation serves to protect the legal rights and interests of business entities mired in a wide variety of controversies. While legal remedies are limited in civil suits, the plaintiff may seek money damages or actions such as an injunction, a restraining order to put a stop to certain activities or obtain other equitable relief. . Examples of our firm’s casework include, but are not limited to: insurance claims, coverage litigation; property damage; and information / data loss, damage, compromise; business disputes; breach of contract; business disparagement; tortuous interference with contracts or business relationships; unfair trade practices / antitrust; unfair competition; consumer class actions; fraud; and breach of fiduciary duty.
