Re: buy a used car as it

Do yourself a favor, seek the advice of an attorney experienced in the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act immediately. There are many laws of which you are probably not aware of which can make your case easier to prove and easier to win. As an example, the contract should have had a provision that obligates the dealer to fix the car should it not pass inspection. You have to sign the contract waiver to give up that right. Additionally, you should have been given a used car buyer's guide which may give you additional warranty rights. If you would like additional info, please feel free to call me at 973-479-5814.

First , you cant convict anyone in a civil case. Convictions are for criminals. Secondly, if you dont have a witness, you may have a problem. It will all turn on the credibility of you versus the defendant. Good luck
