Completion of Pro Bono Case

We are pleased to announce that we have completed our investigation of a consumer fraud case. To recap, this case involved at least 31 affected persons. Most of whom were either retirement age (50+) and at least 5 affected persons had significant disabilities. We have forwarded our findings to the Washington State Attorney General as well as local law enforcement. Our investigation has determined that very poor business practices were in play by the business in question. We have asked the Attorney General and law enforcement to consider fraud charges under the Consumer Protection Act as well as violations of RCW 9A.060.030 (theft by deception).

Given that this type of activity has occurred up and down the State of Washington, we have issued a Community Alert for crafters, creators and artisans. To view the alert, click here
