Legal Question in Consumer Law in Massachusetts
I am going to file a 93A claim against an autobody shop for having my car towed without my permission and damaging it. The owner of the business has an attorney who contacted me with an unreasonable offer based on my verbal complaint. My question is simply should I send the 93A demand letter to the business owner or to his attorney. Thank you.

If you plan to file a 93A claim against the business, then you must send a '93A Demand Letter to the other party or his/her attorney. Read Chapter 93A and make sure you understand it before you proceed.
