Deceptive Trade Practices

The Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act provides protection for consumer from false or misleading practices in consumer transactions. Texans may recover their economic and additional damages, attorneys' fees and costs incurred in a civil action against a business or person who knowingly violates the Act.

Federal and state laws protect consumers from unfair and deceptive trade practices, such as false advertising, the sale of defective or dangerous products, misrepresentations in contracts or warranties, and the breach of the terms of a warranty or contract.

We represent individual consumers and businesses who are victims of deceptive trade practices in central and south Texas. Here are some examples of the types of unfair or deceptive trade practices we have handled:

Defective construction of residence
