Frantz Ward represents manufacturers and finance companies in the defense of claims under manufacturers’ warranties, federal warranty and consumer protection statutes, and state lemon laws. We currently handle all Ohio litigation of this type – including class actions – for several national automobile manufacturers and finance companies.

Our success in representing our clients in these types of claims lies not only in our knowledge of the statutes, case law and substantive legal issues that our clients regularly face, but in our recognition that because attorneys’ fees are often recoverable by a successful plaintiff, early evaluation of these claims leads to the most cost-effective defense. We have established a system enabling us to analyze a case as soon as possible after receipt of the claim and relevant company records, so that we can immediately develop a defense strategy appropriate to each particular claim.
