Duane Morris Takeaway:<\/em><\/strong> Within the vast realm of class action litigation, consumer fraud class actions remain at the forefront. Consumer fraud class actions typically involve a class of consumers who believe they were participating in a legitimate business transaction, but, due to a merchant or company\u2019s alleged deceptive or fraudulent practices, the consumers were actually being defrauded. A wide variety of conduct gives rise to consumer fraud claims. For example, if a business or merchant makes misleading statements about a retail product\u2019s origin, quality, or potential use, over-exaggerates a product\u2019s benefits, imposes classic bait-and-switch tactics on consumers \u2013 wherein consumers are forced to make decisions based on inaccurate or incomplete information \u2013 or charges fees or surcharges that are unrelated to the subject of the merchant\u2019s transaction with the consumer, a claim for consumer fraud will arise because these actions may harm consumers. <\/em><\/p>\n

Every state has consumer protection laws, and consumer fraud class actions require courts to analyze these statutes both with respect to plaintiffs\u2019 claims, and also with respect to choice of law analyses when a complaint seeks to impose liability upon multiple states\u2019 consumer protection laws.<\/p>\n

To that end, the class action team at Duane Morris is pleased to present a new publication \u2013 the 2024 edition of the Consumer Fraud Class Action Review<\/a>. We hope it will demystify some of the complexities of consumer fraud class action litigation and keep corporate counsel updated on the ever-evolving nuances of these issues.\u00a0 We hope this book \u2013 manifesting the collective experience and expertise of our class action defense group \u2013 will assist our clients by identifying developing trends in the case law and offering practical approaches in dealing with consumer fraud class action litigation.<\/p>\n
