At Maloney and Maloney, we have successfully represented consumers in a wide range of consumer fraud actions. Consumer fraud laws regulate the way businesses can advertise, market and sell their products and services to consumers. Generally, these laws broadly prohibit deception in dealing with consumers. Fraudulent acts include false advertising; high-pressure sales tactics; “bait and switch schemes” (where one product or service is offered but another actually delivered); billing fraud, and use of contract language that misleads consumers.

At Maloney and Maloney, we believe in helping the "little guy." The little guy, of course, is the typical consumer. Luckily, the law provides a mechanism through which consumers can join together as a group, or a class, and, for a nominal share of the costs associated with righting big business' wrong, get back the money that is rightfully theirs. The mechanism is known as a "class action."

In a class action, a representative sues big business on behalf of all other persons who were similarly harmed by the same wrongful conduct. Because consumers are joined together as a group, rather than one individual standing alone, it becomes economical to pursue the action and to make big business give back to each person what was wrongfully taken. In appropriate cases, a class action can provide an alternative that allows access to qualified legal counsel who represent the class as a whole.

At Maloney and Maloney, our class action team consists of lawyers and staff, headed by Michael Maloney, devoted to class action litigation. Our team is supported by some of the most experienced and respected class action experts in the United States. Putting all of their resources to work, team members have participated in multi-million dollar recoveries for their clients in class action litigation and other mass tort cases.
