Jennifer's experience includes:

• Obtained dismissal of a class action complaint filed against Century 21 Real Estate LLC in the District of South Carolina.
• Obtained dismissal of a putative class action against a franchisor client, alleging violations of the Real Estate Settlement Practices Act, 12 U.S.C. sec. 2607(b)(“RESPA”), as well as claims under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act. The Court held that there was no basis for the claims against the franchisor given the lack of specificity of the allegations in the complaint. Further, the Court determined that RESPA’s “safe harbor” provision, contained in Section 8(c), applied and precluded the claims against the franchisor.
