Samantha and Cameron are West Viginia consumers who sought our firm’s assistance in connection with electrical system issues and other problems they were having with their new 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander. These clients took their vehicle to an authorized Mitsubishi dealership on multiple occasions for repairs, and it was out of service for over 50 days as a result. They were in need of a West Virginia consumer attorney that handles Lemon Law cases and agreed to have our firm represent them. Throughout the course of their case, our attorneys engaged in settlement negotiations with Mitsubishi, and we were eventually able to procure a fair and reasonable cash settlement for them, and Mitsubishi also paid our attorneys fees. We were able to successfully resolve Samantha and Cameron’s case without even having to file a lawsuit against Mitsubishi.
Even if your vehicle does not fall under the requirements of the Lemon Law, you may still be entitled to receive cash compensation under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the federal lemon law that applies to any defective product that comes with the manufacturer’s warranty. The law also requires the manufacturer to pay the consumer’s attorneys’ fees so we do not have to charge our clients for our services.
