The National Consumer Law Center provides affordable consumer law consulting services for attorneys. For more than thirty years, NCLC has been on the forefront of developments affecting consumer law and litigation. Our specialists average more than 15 years of consumer law experience. This breadth of experience and our access to resources not widely available permit us to offer consumer attorneys high-quality assistance not available elsewhere.

If we can help you represent a client, please call the Center at 617/542-8010 and ask for John Van Alst. You can also e-mail us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
