Deceptive Business Practices
Deceptive business practices can take many forms, and companies often find new ways to mislead consumers. The New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act (NJCFA) broadly prohibits fraud, deception, misrepresentation, and other unfair commercial practices. We represent consumers harmed by deceptive conduct, including:
- False advertising and misleading marketing claims
- Bait-and-switch tactics
- Hidden fees and undisclosed charges
- Fraudulent home improvement contracts
- Automobile sales fraud and odometer tampering
- Predatory lending practices
- Warranty violations and refusal to honor guarantees
- Identity theft and data breaches
- Defective product misrepresentation
- Unlicensed contractor fraud
How We Defend Your Rights
Our firm provides comprehensive representation for victims of deceptive business practices throughout Gloucester County and South Jersey. We evaluate your claims, explain your legal options, and pursue maximum compensation for the harm you suffered. Our team handles every aspect of your case while keeping you informed at each stage.
Case Building and Investigation
Strong consumer fraud cases require thorough documentation and careful investigation. We gather evidence that proves deceptive conduct and establishes the damages you sustained:
- Contracts, receipts, and purchase agreements
- Advertising materials and promotional claims
- Correspondence with the business
- Financial records
- Expert analysis
- Witness statements
Aggressive Negotiation
Many consumer fraud cases settle before trial because of the strong remedies under N.J.S.A. 56:8-19, including treble damages and attorneys’ fees. At Puff Sierzega & MacFeeters, we use this leverage in negotiations, presenting clear evidence of liability and damages and demonstrating our readiness to take cases to trial when fair offers are not made.

When negotiations fail to produce acceptable results, we take your case to court. Our attorneys have extensive trial experience in Gloucester County Superior Court and courts throughout South Jersey. We present consumer fraud claims persuasively to judges and juries, using evidence and testimony that clearly expose deceptive practices.
Our litigation experience allows us to anticipate defense strategies and counter them effectively. We pursue every available remedy, including compensatory damages, treble damages, attorney fees, and injunctive relief when appropriate.
