UCL 17200 is a California statute that prohibits unlawful, unfair, and fraudulent business acts or practices. It enables courts to order remedies such as injunctions, restitution, and disgorgement. Each case depends on facts and proof, so a qualified attorney can assess your specific claims and guide you through the process.
UCL cases vary in length based on complexity, court calendars, and the scope of relief sought. A typical timeline includes investigation, pleadings, discovery, and potential settlement or trial, but timing depends on the specifics of your matter.
Remedies under the UCL can include injunctions to stop conduct, restitution to restore losses, and disgorgement of profits. The court may also award attorney fees in some circumstances.
Many clients pursue both damages or restitution and injunctions depending on the conduct. An attorney can advise on the most effective combination of remedies for your situation.

For a first meeting, bring documents related to the alleged misconduct, dates, communications, advertisements, and any losses or damages you claim.
California UCL cases may involve court appearances for hearings, but much of the work occurs through pleadings, negotiations, and other motions. Your attorney will advise on appearances.
