What was the total recovery in this Kia EV9 case?
The value of the vehicle buyback came to $73,706. The amount combines two payments: one to our client and the attorney fees. Results may vary. Prior outcomes do not guarantee a similar result.
What happens to the car in a buyback versus a cash-and-keep deal?
In a buyback it goes back to the manufacturer, which pays off the loan or lease and refunds the owner (less any use allowance the state permits). In a cash-and-keep deal the owner keeps the car and receives a cash payment.
Who pays the lawyers in a Kia lemon law case?
Generally the manufacturer, under lemon law fee-shifting statutes. Easy Lemon charges no upfront fee.
