Consumer Protection Agency
Services
Consumer Protection acts as the intake agency for consumer complaints alleging various unfair, or deceptive business practices involving the purchase of everyday goods and services. We also regulate and administer county ordinances and issue licenses for the Pain Management Clinics and Personal Injury Protection Medical Providers.
Consumer Protection has also developed award-winning community outreach and education programs, and actively works in the community to provide information and assistance with issues relating to unfair and deceptive business practices. The agency publishes a monthly newsletter and appears on local television consumer stories on a regular basis.

What We Don't Do
While we can provide consumer information and potential options available for many situations, Consumer Protection Agency employees are prohibited from:
- Providing any legal advice.
- Representing consumers in legal actions.
- Forcing or ordering a business to provide a specific resolution.
In some cases, the consumer will need to pursue their own case in court, and seek legal advice from a qualified attorney.
