Why have consumer Protection?
There are several important reasons for some sort of formal "consumer protection." To take it first from the consumer's point of view, the seller has possession of the item for sale and is in a much better position to know the product and/or prevent the consumer from seeing anything wrong with it. Very often, also, the seller is in a financially superior position in general and is able to intimidate the purchaser. Finally, in a society like ours in the U.S. where the producer may be far away from the market, consumer protection prevents a seller from escaping the consequences of inferior or dangerous products just because the victim is far away. From the society's (including the seller's) point of view, some sort of consumer protection allows there to be more trust between the parties to a sale. This reduces negotiation time and other "transaction" costs and makes it possible to do more business. That is, theoretically, one reason the American and European commercial systems are more stable and prosperous than those of some third-world countries.

What Consumer Protection Attorneys Do?
Nearly all states in the United States as well as the federal government have created laws and put into place agencies to protect the consumer from many unfair business practices of corporations and stores. Because of these laws and agencies, Consumer Protection Attorneys have also increased their practices. There are many federal statutes which regulate mail fraud, the quality of meat and poultry, truth in lending, standards of housing and many other categories of business. Product warranties also have minimum standards set which makes a finance company responsible for product defects and creates a financial responsibility for implied warranties as well. These standards are all intended to protect the consumer from fraudulent business practices. All consumers have the right to report fraud or unsafe business practices to the Consumer Protection Agency. The Consumer Protection Agency will assign a Consumer Protection Attorney to the complaint for investigation and follow up as well as to deal with litigation should the case need to go into court. There has been an increase in mail fraud in recent years. Mail fraud may include fake contests as well as advertisements that are obviously too good to be true. In many states there are also laws against door to door sales which are high pressure, false advertising and things such as this. In the United States, just about every state has a state Consumer Protection Agency office or something similar which is set up to protect the consumer. In these offices you will find Consumer Protection Attorneys which will help you with your case and will also decide who to pursue with the case, as this can sometimes be confusing as well. Consumer Protection Attorneys are intended to protect the consumer from unscrupulous business and fake business alike. In some cases, the attorneys are needed to sort out if there is a violation and if so who is to be blamed for the violation. Not all of the statutes are simple or easy to read. When an attorney explains them to the consumer, they will have a better understanding of the law and will be able to more easily discuss the issues with the attorney to decide whether or not a case should be started.
