Consumer Rights

Meites, Mulder, Mollica & Glink represents classes of plaintiffs in cases under state and federal consumer protection statutes.

The firm brought a group of putative class actions under Illinois law that resulted in a victory for low-income homeowners in the Illinois Appellate Court in US Bank National Association v. Clark, 807 N.E.2d 1109 (1st Dist. 2004) (later reversed by the Illinois Supreme Court). The firm is currently working with the Legal Assistance Foundation of Metropolitan Chicago on additional remedies for low-income homeowners who have lost their properties through the fraudulent conduct of others, including banks, tax buyers and would-be "rescue" schemes.

We are currently pursuing relief for thousands of consumers whose requests for reinvestigation of items on their credit reports were denied by Trans Union, one of the three U.S. credit reporting agencies. In Klotz v. Trans Union, No. 05-4580 (E.D.Pa.), we are seeking relief under the Fair Credit Reporting Act on behalf of a nationwide class, and in Smith v. Trans Union, No. IC 851638 (Sup.Ct.Calif.), we are suing under California state law on behalf of California consumers.

The firm welcomes opportunities to build co-counsel relationships with other attorneys who seek a partner in consumer class actions. Please contact us to discuss potential cases. We also welcome inquiries from employees who believe that they have been the victims of consumer fraud.
