In most cases, you should contact my office FIRST, then we can discuss whether or not it is in your best interest to file a complaint with the AG's office.

Here however, you must file a complaint with the AG first:

[Read the last paragraph].

The Complaint Form is available here:

THEN, if you don't get satisfaction, let me know. At that point, you should be entitled to triple damages PLUS attorneys fees. If you've kept good records, we will be able to represent you at no cost to you in reliance on MGL c. 149, s. 27.
