Consumer Protection Attorneys Fighting for Your Rights

As dedicated consumer protection attorneys, Francis Mailman Soumilas, P.C. is committed to standing up for consumers nationwide. Our team of experienced consumer rights lawyers provides representation in cases where corporations have taken advantage of consumers through unfair, deceptive, or harmful practices. We fight for justice in areas of consumer fraud, privacy invasion, debt collection harassment, credit report issues, and much more.

Our Consumer Protection Practice Areas

Consumer Class Actions

When corporate misconduct affects a large group of people, consumer class actions are often the best way to achieve justice. Our consumer protection attorneys represent groups of consumers who have experienced rights violations due to widespread deceptive practices, ensuring that they receive compensation and justice.

COVID-19 Related Litigation

The pandemic brought about numerous cases of businesses denying refunds owed to consumers. If you were entitled to a COVID-19-related refund that you never received, our consumer protection lawyers can assist you with a free case review.

Credit Report Problems (Fair Credit Reporting Act – FCRA)

One of our primary focus areas is credit reporting accuracy and fairness under the FCRA. Many consumers suffer from inaccurate credit reports that damage their financial reputation and credit score. Our attorneys help clients pursue cases against credit reporting agencies, banks, lenders, and other entities that fail to meet FCRA standards, both individually and through class actions.

Debt Collection Harassment (FDCPA)

Unethical debt collection is a significant consumer protection issue, leading to stress and financial hardship. Our firm takes on cases under both the FDCPA and state laws to hold debt collectors accountable. We have extensive experience representing individuals and classes in actions against abusive, threatening, or deceptive debt collection practices, empowering consumers to regain peace of mind.

Deceptive Business Practices or Consumer Fraud

Consumer fraud can take many forms, from misleading advertisements to hidden fees. If you feel you’ve been misled, overcharged, or defrauded, our consumer protection attorneys are here to evaluate your situation and provide expert legal advice.

Employment Screening / Background Checks

Inaccurate or illegal background checks can cost consumers job opportunities. We assist clients whose background checks contain mistakes, outdated information, or were performed without proper notice. Our firm is dedicated to protecting consumers’ rights under employment laws and the FCRA to help clients secure the jobs they deserve.

False Labeling and Overcharging

Our consumer protection attorneys handle cases of overcharging and false labeling on bills, credit cards, utilities, and subscriptions. We fight for consumers who have been unknowingly charged excessive fees or misled about product details and pricing.

False Terrorist Watchlist Hits (OFAC)

A mistaken terrorist watchlist alert can seriously damage an individual’s reputation and financial standing. Our firm assists consumers who have been incorrectly flagged due to name mix-ups, ensuring that these issues are promptly corrected.

Identity Theft

Identity theft causes financial distress and severe reputation damage. Our attorneys work to rectify credit report damage, halt collection efforts, and restore our clients’ financial standing after identity theft, providing support throughout this challenging process.

Medical and Prescription History Reporting Errors

Errors in your medical or prescription history report can impact your access to healthcare, insurance, and other essential services. We assist clients in addressing inaccuracies and hold reporting agencies accountable for the harm caused by incorrect medical data, restoring your rightful access to these vital services.

Mistakenly Reported as Deceased on Your Credit Report

It’s shocking, but some consumers find themselves mistakenly listed as deceased on their credit reports. This major error can freeze access to financial products and create unnecessary hardship. Our attorneys help correct these serious mistakes, ensuring your financial profile reflects your true status and rights.

Robocalls and Unwanted Texts (TCPA)

Robocalls and spam texts violate privacy rights, and we represent clients subjected to harassing calls and messages. Our attorneys help consumers bring actions against violators under the TCPA, securing damages and putting a stop to unwanted communication.

Invasion of Privacy/Data Breach

With consumer data increasingly vulnerable to theft and misuse, data breaches are a growing concern. Our attorneys provide legal recourse for consumers whose personal information has been compromised due to a company’s negligence, advocating for compensation and stronger data security measures.

Tenant Screening

Improper tenant screening practices, such as using outdated or inaccurate information in background checks, can prevent consumers from securing housing. Our firm helps renters whose housing applications were unfairly denied, holding landlords and screening agencies accountable for violations of tenant rights.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Attorney Jeffrey Baskerville and Paralegal Faina Bhagat were an awesome legal team for my consumer affairs case! I enjoyed the professional and caring attitude they brought to the handling of my case! I was very pleased with the results of the case and how they brought me justice to stop the big 3 credit bureaus and collection agency from posting a collection that was not even legitimate! Thanks again Jeffrey and Faina and I appreciate your hard work and commitment to seeking justice and your passion for the Law!

I had a problem with a credit bureau that I did not think I had a valid case against but Joe Gentilcore and Daynette Driver took my case and within 5 months it was settled and I received a check for all the trouble I went through.
