This morning I thought it would be a good idea to review the basic elements of a "contract". Once that was done, it was time to get back to business, my "contractual law series". Today's main topic: Dating Services ant the law that protects you. A good place to look is "The Better Business Bureau" which has important questions you should ask a perspective dating service company. Check out their website! David Lesch, Esq.

This morning I concluded my series on the New York State Consumer Protection Laws by discussing the recent cases interpreting those same statutes. In 2010 the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Acts were signed into law. It has taken some time, but the Courts have begun interpreting those statutes. Tune in 2nite at 10 pm, channel 67, to see how the judges have given the average consumer additional rights. David Lesch, Esq.

Many of the Consumer Protection Statutes I discussed on tv this morning should be referred to when in Small Claims Court. The most popular statute: The General Business Law, section 349. This law deals with small claims that arise from defective or misrepresented goods and services. Remember, a misleading business practice can be dealt with. You just have to know your rights.
