Buying a car can be very stressful, as there is often a lot to learn. Consumers in Orange County and elsewhere throughout California need to know about consumer protection laws like the lemon law, as well as how to actually decide which car to buy and how much to pay. One of the things that makes car buying so unpleasant for a lot of people is that they don't just walk into the dealership and find out what the price is (as they do in almost all other transactions they do over the course of their life). Instead, consumers end up haggling with car dealers in a process that often makes them miserable.

Many consumers are rightly worried when they buy a car because they are concerned that car manufacturers and car dealers are not honest. There is ample evidence to support this conclusion, from vehicle defects that dealers knew about to frequent reports of arrests of unscrupulous car dealers. While there are consumer protection laws aimed at protecting purchasers of new cars in case of repeat defects, even taking advantage of these laws can require the help of a California lemon law attorney due to the complexity of the laws. Consumers need to be aware of the risks and try to be proactive in protecting themselves.

Car dealers and manufacturers all-too-often fail to prioritize driver safety over profits. Unfortunately, this can mean consumers end up with a defective car that they cannot drive, or they end up suffering financially in some way due to vehicle problems or issues with the car buying process. The California Lemon Law is a consumer protection law that can provide some relief to victims who face problems with a new car purchase. Criminal laws can also help to deter bad behavior on the part of dealers and car manufacturers, although unfortunately bad car dealers often are not charged until consumers have suffered financial loss.

"I was blown away at how fast the settlement wrapped up. I was told about 8 months to a year for success, but Brian Wagner and his supporting team did a fantastic job, perhaps 6 months ahead of schedule. From my initial consultation with Erika, her assessment of my case, including the assigning of Mr. Wagner as counsel, the stress reducing assurance of paralegal Andy Kim, and the personable approach of Melanie, who eased my anxiety with her confidence and support in reception of my calls. Great job team!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
