In California, consumers have a cause of action under the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, which can award damages of not less than $1,000. Currently, Covenant Care, LLC, Welk Resort, Inc., and AltaMed Health Services Corporation have notified their subscribers that their medical information has been stolen. If you have received a data breach notification from any health provider, contact us immediately for a free consultation.
Adulterated Pet Food
Our pets are our most cherished companions. We give them homes, and shelter, and they give us love. Sadly, a number of dog food companies, in an effort to cut costs, have used suppliers whose practices have lead to a number of animals being poisoned, and in some cases died. If your pet has become sick after consuming their food, contact us immediately for a free consultation!
Illegal Recording
A common practice among debt collectors is to record their phone calls with debtors without their knowledge. Under California law, you cannot be recorded in a phone call without your permission. If this has happened to you, you may be entitled to statutory damages of up to $5,000 per violation. If you believe that you were recorded in a phone call without your permission, contact us now!
