🍋 Know Your Rights: Lemon Law! 🍋 If you're dealing with a "lemon" car that seems to have endless issues that can't be fixed, the Lemon Law can protect you! If your new vehicle has substantial defects covered under warranty and the manufacturer can't repair them after a reasonable number of attempts, you may be eligible for relief under the Lemon Law. Oregon's Lemon Law safeguards consumers for two years or 24,000 miles from the purchase or lease of a new vehicle. If your new vehicle has substantial defects covered under warranty and the manufacturer can't repair them after a reasonable number of attempts, you may be eligible for relief under the Lemon Law. Keep detailed records of repair attempts and contact an attorney or the Oregon Department of Justice for guidance.

🌟 OCJ at 2024 Spring Training! 🌟 Several OCJ team members and two policy interns attended 2024 Spring Training presented by National Consumer Law Center /National Association of Consumer Advocates in Atlanta. This smaller, subject matter-focused conference provides networking and resource opportunities to help build relationships and grow the community of consumer attorneys. A gathering celebrating consumer attorney Tim Quenelle brought together the Oregon attorneys in attendance to connect and further build community. Many Oregon attendees used OCJ's scholarship to support their participation at the event. OCJ offers this financial support to invest in the continuing education and development of the consumer legal community. #OCJ #OregonConsumerJustice #Oregon #OregonNonprofit #SpringTraining #ConsumerLaw #LegalCommunity #Scholarship #ConsumerAttorneys
