Consequences of Being Sued by a State Attorney General

As explained more fully in Mr. Stenberg's Washington Legal Foundation article, there are several adverse consequences for a company sued by a State Attorney General. They are:

  • Loss of Customers
  • Declined Stock Price
  • Significant Attorney Fees
  • Possible Multi-Million Dollar Penalties

These are all powerful reasons to (1) avoid becoming the object of an Attorney General lawsuit; (2) settle a dispute before an action is filed; or (3) promptly settle an action if one has been filed by a State Attorney General.

Don Stenberg has the experience and understanding to advise and assist in each of these situations. He recommends that a company take a proactive approach in its relationships with State Attorneys General and always respond appropriately to contacts from an Attorney General's office.
