Consumer Rights Protection
Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA) Claims
One of the primary laws that grants consumer rights protection is the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). This act is commonly referred to as the DTPA and serves as a shield for consumers against false, misleading, and deceptive business practices, unconscionable actions, and breaches of warranty.
Some of these violations come in the form of the purchase of a vehicle with known defects, a bait and switch tactic, faulty or shotty home improvements or repairs, and other situations where you, the consumer, have paid money for a service that wasn’t performed or for a good that you never received.
