Q: Ok, my mom sold for Paparazzi Jewelry, under the guise of it being hypoallergenic, as well as nickle AND lead free;
She found out that it was a lie. They had nickle AND lead, and some have reported the lead is toxic. Now, I know MLMs are extremely hard to catch, but they tout these jewels, necklaces, bracelts, etc as LEAD AND NICKLE free to ALL consultants, AND customers. Is there ANYTHING my mom can do to sue them for this? Shes now worried for her and others health
A: This sounds like a breach-of-contract claim. The devil is in the details, and there are more details than I can list in this format. Who would be the defendant? Is there a written warranty by the seller regarding the merchandise? Where is the defendant? Is there jurisdiction here in Michigan? Is a class-action complaint possible? What's an MLM? And so on. Your mother should consult an attorney. Maybe she can locate an attorney who takes on class actions against persons such as the sellers of this product. I have never heard of this seller, and know nothing about the structure of the transactions here, so please forgive my ignorance.
