Consumers are protected under various state and federal laws when it comes to rent-to-own companies. Some of the biggest rent-to-own companies are Aaron’s and Rent-A-Center. There are laws to protect consumers in every state, and these laws are oftentimes called UDAP laws. What that stands for is Unfair, Deceptive, Abusive Acts and Practices. Under various UDAP statutes consumers are entitled to money damages, and there’s what’s called a fee shift provision. That means our fees and costs are paid for by the other side. So if you’re being harassed by a rent-to-own company, and they are some of the most aggressive companies I’ve seen go after consumers, whether it’s harassing phone calls, contacting family, friends, or neighbors, you can contact my office. We will immediately get the harassment to stop, and not only are you entitled to money damages but based on the fee shift provision these rent-to-own companies have to pay my fees and costs, so you’re not going to owe me a penny for my time.
