Class Action/Be Produtctions/My Talent Services/Mnterey Fianancial Services

All you need to do is click on the title of this post and it will take you to the web page set up to take complaints for the class action. This Link will direct you to where they are investigating potential claims in a class action law suit.

Companies Offering Assistance or Career-Counseling In the Entertainment Industry



Preston Law Offices, LLC and Parisi & Havens LLP are investigating potential claims against companies that provide or attempt to provide children auditions related to employment in the entertainment industry, or career counseling, evaluation, planning or other resources in connection with employment in the entertainment industry. These companies may have misleading or fraudulent practices that are actionable under a variety of laws. Moreover, some companies' contracts may be invalid under the Advance Fee Talent Services Act, so that their customers may be able to recover the money already paid out to these companies as well as eliminate any outstanding liability on existing contracts. The state of California enacted the Act in response to a history of abusive, fraudulent, and/or misleading practices, and the Act tightly regulates that industry. In addition, some of these companies use third party firms to collect money from their customers in ways that violate the law.

We are evaluating bringing a class action against one or more of the companies we are investigating. In a class action, our clients would act as class representatives and could recover damages and other remedies on behalf of all other people with similar claims (without those people having to necessarily hire an attorney). Click here to read more about class actions. If you or someone you know have signed a contract with such a company, please contact us using the form to the right.
