forgery photo - Car Dealership Fraud Attorney Serving Gaithersburg, MDYou have a range of choices when you go to buy a new or used car in Gaithersburg, Maryland. There are many options, including Acura, Volkswagen, Mini, Toyota and Ford dealerships in and near the city. Gaithersburg is widely considered one of Maryland’s best places to live, with a population of nearly 70,000 and plenty of parks and other attractions. It is also convenient to nearby communities like Rockville, Potomac and Bethesda.

When you go to buy a car in Gaithersburg, you should be able to believe that your dealer is giving you true information about the quality of the vehicles you are considering. Unfortunately, many people find out only after making their purchase that the dealership they visited was engaged in unethical business practices like fraud, stealing GAP or extended warranty money, overcharging, misrepresentation and sometimes even forgery.

If you found out after your purchase that a Gaithersburg car dealer lied about your vehicle to induce you to purchase it, you can fight back by working with a lawyer to sue a car dealership. Whitney, LLP’s auto fraud attorneys can work hard on your behalf to help you obtain the compensation you are due.

Here are reviews from what some of our past clients have said about us, and here are some of our past settlement results in claims and lawsuits against car dealerships. We offer Legal Consultations. Call us at (410) 583-8000 or use our online form to request your free initial consultation today.

Lawyer to Sue a Car Dealership Near Me in Gaithersburg, MD

Dealerships in Bethesda and Gaithersburg have a responsibility to provide accurate information about the material aspects of the cars they are selling to their customers. However, some of them want to pass off returned vehicles brought back after a previously failed transaction as if they are new cars. These vehicles are worth thousands of dollars less, but some unethical dealerships may try to profit from fraud and misrepresentation.

In some cases, the car came back to the dealership in the first place because of previous schemes like a dubious financing plan or an undisclosed defect. A car that was previously delivered to a customer cannot again be sold as new to a customer without the prior delivery being disclosed.

Dealerships also will do a spot delivery on a vehicle, meaning deliver it to the customer before financing is approved. However, they often refuse to return a down payment when financing is not approved, and try to keep the down payment and other money the customer paid up front.

If you have discovered that you are the victim of a Rockville or Gaithersburg car dealer’s deception, take action to recover your losses by contacting the auto dealership fraud lawyers at Whitney, LLP. You may be able to pursue your claim by suing a car dealership responsible for lying and overcharging.

You may also discover that a car dealership promised extra features, safety details, or improved speed and power to get you to purchase a vehicle, but the equipment you paid for was never provided. In some cases, you may only find out that you were deceived after taking the car to a mechanic for maintenance, especially when the promised features are not externally visible.

You may also find out that the car itself is fine, but the circumstances of the purchase and financing are forcing you to pay thousands of dollars extra. You may be promised a false interest rate or face overcharging for excessive and unnecessary fees.

You may even find out that Gaithersburg car dealerships were forging your signature or adding forged initials to the page in order to claim that you signed on to contract terms that you never agreed to. If the dealer is attempting to hide damage or problems in the car’s history, they may engage in forgery or give customers papers with a false VIN to sign. They may attempt to conceal these material facts with forged initials. If you bought a car only to discover that the dealer was lying and forging my signature, the auto fraud attorneys at Whitney, LLP can help you pursue justice and accountability.
