Hanson Law Firm Class Action Victory: AmeriCredit Violated California Consumer Law

On January 31, 2012, the Hanson Law Firm’s client, Steven Aho, representing thousands of California consumers over a four year period, won partial Summary Judgment against subprime lender AmeriCredit Financial.  The United States District Court in the Southern District of California held that AmeriCredit’s Post-Repossession notices violated California consumer protection laws.  Effectively, this decision invalidates approximately $400 million of California consumer debt.  Now the Hanson Law Firm is going to trial to force AmeriCredit to cease collections, refund all amounts paid by class members, and clean class member’s credit reports.
