WCB Attorney Mark R. Cuker

"Huge imbalances of power exist in the area of consumer rights because market
forces do not sufficiently protect the consumer in almost any industry, ranging from
insurance to retail. Therefore, it is up to the lawyers to empower the consumer by
enforcing the law and holding companies accountable for their actions."
— Mark R. Cuker

Consumer Rights

Consumers have the right to honesty and full disclosure in all their transactions. This means that companies must honor their promises and give the consumer all the information necessary to make an informed decision.

But that does not always happen. Consumer fraud comes in many forms. Some people buy products or services, which do not perform as advertised. Others are gouged by predatory lenders. Still others are denied medical treatment by a managed care company.

$109 MILLION RENT-A-CENTER CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT FOR NEW JERSEY CUSTOMERS

An agreement has been reached to settle a class action lawsuit by New Jersey consumers against Rent-A-Center, Inc., for $109 million. This class action settlement will fully reimburse those customers who entered into contracts with Rent-A-Center during the period April 23, 1999 through March 16, 2007 for the amounts that they paid Rent-A-Center in excess of that permitted under the New Jersey law as resolved by the New Jersey Supreme Court in this case. Approximately 100,000 Rent-A-Center customers will each receive, on average, almost $800.00, although individual amounts may vary considerably.

Please call 1-866-963-9974 if you believe you are a class member. It is absolutely critical that you give us your current address and phone numbers.

Mark Cuker of Williams Cuker Berezofsky, along with Seth Lesser of the Locks Law Firm and Bill Riback are counsel for the Plaintiff’s Settlement Class of New Jersey consumers.
