OCJ is thrilled to introduce "Purchasing a Used Car," its inaugural Consumer Confidence Comic. This comic combines a used car buying guide with an interactive coloring book for all Oregonians.
If buying a used car, you may need financing for your purchase. For many consumers, auto financing is a complicated and hard-to-understand process, even for those who have previously financed vehicles. Learn how financing works and how to maximize financing on your next vehicle purchase.
The brief argues that tenants should have the right to safe, healthy, and habitable common areas.
Explore key tips for buying a used car. Learn to avoid common pitfalls that support informed choices at the dealership.
The Securing Consumers Against Misrepresented (SCAM) Debt Act will empower consumers with the information they need to protect themselves from debt collectors that use misleading allegations to convince people to pay debts they do not legally owe.
Consumers of medical and mental health care who look to medical credit cards with the hope of expanding their ability to access care are too often trapped by predatory practices.
The brief argues that federal and Oregon laws don’t allow arbitration agreements to be enforced if one party fails to pay its fees.
OCJ hosted our first CLE Event and Networking Reception on March 29 at the Oregon State Bar Conference Center in Tigard.
Celebrating important victories for Oregon consumers
Earlier this month, members of OCJ Law’s legal team (attorney Matt Kirkpatrick and paralegal Lucia Becchetti) joined attorney Matthew Sutton in Medford, prevailing on multiple claims in a trial to find justice for a southern Oregon woman against family law practice, Rise Law Group, Inc (Rise).
Our policy team is joined this winter by two new interns in their last year of law school: Taylor Westlund (she/her) and Devon Gonzalez-Yoxtheimer (they/them).
While still on track to begin broadly taking consumer clients later this year as announced last November, we are thrilled to share that just before the new year, OCJ filed our first consumer case!
