The most important consumer statute in your state is your unfair and deceptive acts and practices (UDAP) statute, usually providing attorney fees, and treble, punitive or minimum damages for a wide array of deceptive or abusive practices — auto repair and sales, insurance, landlord tenant, credit, leases, mobile homes, utilities, debt collection, foreclosures, business opportunities, and much more.

NCLC's manual has been universally recognized for over 20 years as the essential guide in this area. Everything an attorney needs to know about handling a deceptive practices case in all 50 states:

  • Loan brokers
