Vehicle Dealerships

Attorneys Representing Auto Dealers

The attorneys of Anderlini, Finkelstein, Emerick & Smoot provide a full range of legal services tailored to the needs of auto dealers and other vehicle dealerships. Motor vehicle dealerships are highly regulated businesses that have unique needs in their dealings with consumers, regulatory agencies, vehicle manufacturers and the state.

We assist clients in the purchase and sale of dealerships as well as dealership mergers and acquisitions. Our lawyers provide legal counsel in all areas of operating the business, from business formation and startup to reviewing and drafting contracts, and establishing employee policies and handbooks.

Resolving Disputes

Dealerships are a lightning rod for litigation. We defend dealers in disputes and claims brought by consumers, vendors, employees and others. Our goal is to resolve these disputes quickly and cost effectively so they do not become a distraction to ongoing business operations. However, if an issue cannot be fairly resolved outside of the courtroom, you can depend on us for aggressive representation at trial.

Our lawyers provide knowledgeable defense of auto dealers facing legal action under the California Lemon Law and the Consumer Legal Remedies Act. We also represent clients in franchise agreement protests filed in the California New Motor Vehicle Dealer's Board. If the California Department of Motor Vehicles has taken administrative action or assessed administrative penalties against your dealership, you can rely on us for knowledgeable legal representation.

To speak to an attorney who understands dealerships and knows how to help, please contact us today.
