: Legal Pad | LAAttorney general files suit against "rip-off" brothers
By Richard Binder
Attorney General Jerry Brown filed a lawsuit today against two brothers, Sean and Michael McConville, who "ripped off homeowners" seeking help in reducing their property tax assessments by billing them nearly $200 each for property tax reassessment that can be done for free by local tax assessors.
The brothers operated the southern California businesses "Property Tax Reassessment" and "Property Tax Adjustment Services." The lawsuit contends that neither company informed consumers that they were not a governmental entity, the solicitations were not a bill, purchase of the services was not required and services were available for free from county assessors.
Brown's suit was filed in San Diego County Superior Court and seeks at least $2.5 million in civil penalties.
