Many CBD Products Sold With False Promises, Outright Lies
If you think you’re seeing CBD products everywhere these days, that’s because you are. Thanks to the legalization of industrial hemp in the 2018 US Farm Bill, CBD products have exploded in availability and popularity recently. Sales of CBD products were expected to exceed $5 billion in 2019, a 706% increase over 2018. CBD has become the new gold rush for supplement manufacturers and marketers. Unfortunately, every gold rush brings with it scammers, snake oil salesman, and unscrupulous marketers- and CBD is no exception. Kazerouni Law Group is one of the leading consumer law firms in California, and has the expertise needed to hold these illegal marketers responsible.
While the therapuetic value of CBD is still being studied, many CBD products promise benefits that can’t possibly be proved, aren’t supported by research, or gross exaggerations. Some also avoid mentioning the documented side effects of CBD products, several of which can be serious. Marketing a supplement or drug with unsupported, unproven, or outright false claims is illegal in America, and consumers who have purchased CBD products that were sold with these claims can sue under consumer protection statutes. If you have purchased a CBD product recently, it’s important you review the qualifications below to see if you have a case. If you think you have purchased an illegally marketed CBD supplement, please contact us through the form to the right.
Your initial consultation with Kazerouni Law Group will be completely free, and you wont pay a dime unless we win or settle your case! A judge could award you up to $1500 for your participation in a class action lawsuit against the unscrupulous marketers who sold you the supplement.
