Lemon law leads offer strong potential for attorneys focused on consumer protection and defective product litigation. These leads involve clients who have purchased or leased vehicles that repeatedly fail to meet quality and performance standards.
These cases often qualify under state-specific lemon laws, especially when repair attempts fail or the vehicle remains out of service for extended periods. Attorneys can secure statutory damages, refunds, or replacement vehicles for qualified clients.
Lemon law leads make up a smaller but growing segment of consumer legal leads. In high-volume states like California, these cases are rising sharply year over year.
With around 150,000 potential lemon vehicles sold annually in the U.S., lemon law leads offer consistent opportunities in jurisdictions with strong consumer laws and active enforcement.
Effective lemon law intake requires gathering details such as purchase or lease date, VIN, repair history, dealership information, and warranty terms. Attorneys should also collect all service records and communication with manufacturers or dealers.
Structured intake forms should track the number of repair attempts, duration of vehicle downtime, and types of defects reported. This documentation helps attorneys determine eligibility under applicable state lemon laws.
