5 Questions to Ask a Volkswagen Lemon Law Attorney
Have you handled Volkswagen cases?
Ask how many, and how Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. usually responds to buyback and replacement demands. A firm that knows the manufacturer's process can move faster.
What records do you need from me?
Every repair order from the Volkswagen dealer, including "could not duplicate" visits, plus your purchase or lease contract and any warranty paperwork.
Do recall repairs count?
A recall repair for the same problem you reported can count as a repair attempt. Volkswagen has had 82 recalls since the 2021 model year, so ask how your recall history fits your claim.
What will it cost me?
Nothing. California makes the manufacturer pay your attorney fees when you win (Civil Code section 1794(d)). With us you pay $0, win or lose.
Will you go to trial against Volkswagen?
We take cases to trial when a manufacturer will not resolve them fairly.
