Have you heard about the Lemon Law? Do you know what it is? Is it time for you to call an attorney that specializes in automobiles? If you purchased your car from a dealer, and it does not meet the promised standards you may be protected under these statutes.

A lemon law exists in every state. They "establish a standard for when vehicles should be repurchased or replaced by the manufacturer." They offer protection from breach of contract and extended warranty. The Better Business Bureau has specifics on the standards for the lemon law in each state. Alternatively, a local lemon law attorney can advise you on the law for your state.

An attorney should not be your first stop though. First, you should talk to your car dealership. Your problems may be covered by your extended warranty. Giving your dealership the chance to make good on your extended warranty is far preferable to litigation. If after contacting the dealership regarding your problems, your dealer does not honor your extended warranty or claims that your car warranty does not cover the problems, it is time to take the next step.

The Better Business Bureau will provide you with information about the Lemon Law in your state and can even help you file a complaint. Visit the Better Business Bureau at http://lemonlaw.bbb.org/ for directions on filing a complaint or for help contacting a Lemon Law Attorney.

The Better Business Bureau may be able to help with mediation or even informal arbitration between you and your dealer. If they can't help, your attorney will be able to take you through the legal recourses available to you. Your attorney can cut through the legal terminology to determine if your extended warranty has been violated. Your attorney is qualified to conduct formal arbitration and help you enforce the legal contract of your automobile warranty. Choose an attorney with proven experience in enforcing the lemon law- one with a solid record for results.

Your lemon law attorney will guide you through the courses of action available, which can be anything from the dealer purchasing your car back, to a cash-settlement. Regardless of what the results may be, take some action. You paid good money for a car, and you have every reason to expect that car to function properly. If your car has failed in this, if it has been to the mechanic repeatedly for the same problem or if it has spent more than 30 calendar days in the shop, then the lemon law may offer you protection and compensation.

Laws are designed to protect the consumer, but they do have limitations. There are time restrictions that vary from state to state, as well as what is and is not covered by the lemon law. Don't assume that because your car breaks down often the mechanic is at fault. He may be doing his best to save your lemon and fighting a losing battle. Check your car warranty and call a lemon law attorney if needed.
