Auto Dealer Fraud - Car Dealer Scam - Financial Fraud

If you are one of the Millions of Americans who have purchased the popular add-on products Credit Life Insurance, Credit Disability Insurance, Extended Warranty Coverage and\or GAP Insurance and have paid your car loan off early, you are entitled to a refund of the Unearned Premiums.

The entire premium for these products is paid for up-front and when a loan is paid off or terminated early, the coverage is left with an unearned premium. That unearned premium is your money and the companies that market these products hope you never try to claim the money that legally belongs to you.

Our Law Firm has settled and is currently involved in dozens of car dealer financial fraud cases against Insurance Companies that hold money belonging to people who have paid off early.

If you have purchased such products and never received a refund on an early payoff, please contact us regarding your rights.

Stanley crossed the centerline and struck the Explorer head-on.
