Attorney General Advertising Enforcement
As the Assistant Attorney General overseeing dealers, Marc Worthy has developed a list of violations he is focusing on as he conducts compliance sweeps of dealerships statewide.
This workshop is an opportunity to learn from the Attorney General’s office how to ensure your store doesn’t face enforcement action.
Marc will discuss:
- Top ten advertising violations;
- Review recent enforcement actions against dealers outside of Washington, and eastern Washington dealers in particular;
- The Attorney General enforcement action process, including Civil Investigative Demands; and
- Explain the difference between an enforcement action and an inquiry from the Attorney General Consumer Resource Center, and a dealership’s responsibility.
