Author Description

Ohio Consumer Law is a convenient reference for attorneys, consumers, and providers of consumer goods and services in Ohio. Prepared under the auspices of the Legal Aid Society of Cleveland and the Ohio State Legal Services Association, this handbook analyzes hundreds of cases that are essential to interpreting the law. The authors use their up-to-date analysis of recent legislation and caselaw to explain the federal and state statutes, rules, and court decisions applicable to Ohio consumer law. Drawing on both reported and unreported Ohio trial and appellate cases, they provide numerous examples of how the courts have applied Ohio consumer laws to specific facts. The book starts with a chart of laws applicable to consumer transactions and includes a chapter on arbitration, which offers in-depth analysis of applicable statutes and caselaw. It includes checklists and sample forms for quick research.
