Helping Clients See Success By Following FTC Guidelines & Resolving Enforcement Actions
At RICHT, one of our core practices focuses on assisting clients with matters arising from the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) Section 5 powers to regulate "unfair or deceptive acts or practices." Often occurring in the marketing, privacy, and online business context, balancing regulatory risk and navigating any FTC enforcement actions is critical for our clients. We help avoid costly FTC proceedings by advising clients on best practices in line with FTC guidance. We also assist those already subject to FTC enforcement action by working with regulators toward a speedy and favorable resolution.
