Better yet, you have chosen the experienced lemon law attorneys at Nahavandi & Azimtash LLP to pursue a legal action on your behalf. Now what? The attorneys at Nahavandi & Azimtash LLP will work tirelessly to get the best possible outcome for your lemon. The outcome may be either one of the following: lemon law buyback, replacement, or cash compensation.

If the manufacturer offers you a simple solution, such as relieving you from two months’ worth of payments on your car, or a few hundred dollars, do not accept their offer until you speak with the attorneys at Nahavandi & Azimtash LLP who are willing to consult you on any offers you have received at no charge to you.

Lemon Law Buyback

If you have purchased or leased a vehicle or consumer good that meets the criteria of lemon laws, you may be entitled to a what is called a “buyback,” which is essentially a refund for your vehicle or consumer good.

If you purchased your vehicle or consumer good and it is deemed a lemon, your buyback will consist of the following:

Down payment paid for the vehicle/product
All monthly payments starting from the time the recurring defect first made a showing
All incidental/consequential damages as a result of the defects (e.g. rental cars, towing, Uber rides, etc.)
Sales tax
If applicable, any loan payments (i.e. payoff amount) remaining on the vehicle/product

If you leased your vehicle or consumer good and it is deemed a lemon, your buyback will consist of the following:

Down payment
All monthly payments starting from the time the recurring defect first made a showing
All incidental/consequential damages as a result of the defects (e.g. rental cars, towing, Uber rides, etc.)
If the vehicle or product is still being leased, any lease payments (i.e. payoff amount) remaining

Replacement Vehicles

If you have purchased or leased a vehicle or consumer good that meets the criteria of lemon laws, you may be entitled to a replacement. If you choose to get a replacement as a remedy, the consumer is entitled to a replacement vehicle or product that is substantially similar to the consumer’s vehicle or product as it existed when the consumer purchased or leased it. As applicable with a buyback, the manufacturer must pay for all incidental and consequential damages as a result of the vehicle’s defects (e.g. rental cars, towing, Uber rides, etc.) Lastly, if the vehicle or product was purchased or leased with service contracts or any other optional contracts, the manufacturer must include such options with the replacement vehicle or product.

Cash Compensation

At your disposal may be a remedy known as “Cash and Keep,” which allows the consumer to keep the vehicle or other consumer good (and all of its warranties) and be paid compensation for issues and defects the vehicle or consumer good experienced. Cash and Keep compensation is normally preferable in cases where the vehicle or consumer goods’ defects are not substantially impairing. This remedy is sometimes directly offered by the manufacturers to the consumers of lemon vehicles or products before the consumer has an attorney. Should this happen, do not accept such Cash and Keep offers until you speak with the attorneys at Nahavandi & Azimtash LLP who are willing to consult you on any offers you have received at no charge to you.
