$7,000,000 Settlement Against Lender for Bogus Insurance

Class Action Victory Over Improper Forced-Placed Insurance Charges

Lober & Dobson successfully secured a $7,000,000 class action settlement against a major lender for illegally forcing Georgia consumers to pay for bogus or unnecessary insurance coverage on small consumer loans. This practice, known as “forced-placed insurance,” dramatically inflated the cost of the loans and violated consumer protection laws.

Our firm aggressively litigated the matter, successfully defending class certification through the Georgia Court of Appeal. This strategic victory ultimately compelled the lender to settle, returning millions to consumers who were unfairly charged.
