Consumer Rights Law Firm Hagens Berman Launches Investigation into Real Estate Agent Practices
If we find that consumers were misled, we're prepared to act to hold companies responsible.
Share
The investigation comes on the heels of a blockbuster settlement totaling $1 billion in Burnett v. National Association of Realtors, which alleges that real estate brokerage companies and the National Association of Realtors caused home sellers to pay illegally inflated broker commissions through unlawful practices. Hagens Berman serves as co-lead counsel in the antitrust litigation.
If you sold a home since 2021, you may be impacted by recently uncovered practices and could be eligible to potential compensation. Attorneys encourage those who have sold a home with the assistance of an online real estate agent since 2021 to contact the law firm to learn more about their rights.
Real Estate's Real Cost
Hagens Berman's research has identified allegedly deceptive practices in the home selling process that may affect consumers nationwide. Brokers, which offer home selling and buying services to millions across the U.S. each year, may be violating consumer rights and causing home sellers to overpay.
'Our investigation is about making sure the real estate market is fair and just for consumers,' says Steve W. Berman, managing partner of Hagens Berman and co-lead counsel in the recentlandmark real estate antitrust case. 'Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest financial decisions people make. Our job is to make sure families can trust the process and aren't taken advantage of. If we find that consumers were misled, we're prepared to act to hold companies responsible.'
