Litigating consumer fraud and breach of warranty cases can be difficult. It is not uncommon for clients to have difficulty operating the vehicle which might not be working properly. It is a difficult situation where clients have monetary issues with dealerships have improperly taken money, sold, and were misrepresented the goods which were purchased, and the customer did not get what they thought they purchased or what was promised.
In the New Jersey consumer can rely upon representations from the seller. The seller is required to know what they were selling. Under many circumstances the law does not required any intent for a consumer to maintain a claim.

Mr. Rudnick has experienced litigating various types of claims over many years against hundreds and hundreds of dealerships. Mr. Rudnick has litigated cases in New Jersey, Maryland, Arkansas, Washington State, and Illinois.

It is currently admitted in Illinois and Maryland on class actions against large dealerships for improperly paying their employees. These are known as pay plan litigation. Many circumstances I have considered litigating with other attorneys and other states for consumer cases against car dealerships. However due to time restrictions and the complexity of dealing with other states in that class actions are generally consumer cases are only brought in New Jersey including for out-of-state consumers.

If you are an out-of-state consumer and you purchased the vehicle from a New Jersey car dealership or in the state of New Jersey, you could hire me to file a claim against these car dealerships. The jurisdictional requirements are that if at the defendant is a New Jersey you can see the defendant in New Jersey. Therefore, I have litigated for clients in many states, all over the United States of America. While my clients have lived in various states of Sue New Jersey as they purchased a vehicle from the New Jersey car dealership.
