Consumer Litigation Associates (CLA) was VERY helpful with the Virginia Employment Commission (VEC) incompetent handling of unemployment benefits during the pandemic. They, along with other VA legal organizations, brought a class-action suit against VEC to do their job! And it appears to be working, as I was finally paid my unemployment benefits 8 months after the 1st payment should have arrived, and 3 months after the last payment should have arrived. There is a backlog of some 90,000 people with VEC claims, and despite those huge numbers, CLA was able to contact me directly to let me know that

I truly appreciate Consumer Litigation Associates for their hard work and effort in assisting me with my case. I commend them for their caring, concern and the way they effectively communicated with me regarding any concern that I may have had. I highly recommend the Consumer Litigation Associates to those like myself, who still value the type of experience from a legal team who show that they really care about their clients.
