Unfair and Deceptive Acts and Practices
What happens if I win my unfair and deceptive practices lawsuit?
Many states permit you to recover double or triple damages, as well as lawyer's fees, in unfair and deceptive practices cases. The purpose of these harsh penalties is to discourage sellers from committing unfair or deceptive acts in the future.
