Cousins Law recently secured a significant win in a lemon law case involving a luxury vehicle brand, Bentley. This outcome highlights our firm’s commitment to client advocacy and demonstrates the Lemon Law’s effectiveness in protecting consumers.

The Case at a Glance

Dr. Bequer purchased a Bentley, expecting reliability and excellence synonymous with the brand. However, the vehicle unexpectedly stopped multiple times, posing a safety concern. Despite these issues, Bentley contended that the vehicle operated as intended, leading Dr. Bequer and his wife to seek lemon law relief through Florida’s Office of the Attorney General.

Their persistence was met with success at the lemon law hearing, where the Bentley was officially declared a lemon. Bentley’s subsequent appeals to both the Circuit Court and the 4th District Court of Appeal were unsuccessful, with each affirming the vehicle’s lemon status.

Cousins Law’s Approach

Our approach was straightforward: ensure the Bequers received fair treatment under the law. Bentley’s strategy seemed aimed at exhausting our clients into settling for less. However, by focusing on the merits of the case and leveraging the protections afforded by Florida’s lemon law, we were able to uphold the initial decision across all levels of appeal.

Client-Centered Representation

This case underscores the importance of diligent legal representation and the value of the Lemon Law in addressing significant vehicle defects. Thank you, Dr. and Mrs. Bequer, for having faith in me and the justice system and allowing me to represent you in Bentley’s appeal of your case.  You have been vindicated!”

Cousins Law remains dedicated to providing our clients with knowledgeable and focused legal services. This case is a testament to our firm’s ability to achieve positive outcomes, reinforcing our commitment to justice and client satisfaction.
