About us

Braff Law Firm

You spent years saving up to buy that beautiful boat so you could spend weekends and holidays cruising off the California shoreline or go boating on your favorite lake. But now there are recurring engine problems and that beautiful boat has spent more time in dry dock than out on the water. What could be more disappointing other than the multiple failed repair attempts that have resulted in it still being dry-docked?

Does this sound familiar? If so, a Boats and Watercraft Lemon attorney in Cathedral City with the Braff Law Firm can provide a legal remedy.
Many boat and watercraft owners don’t know that California’s Lemon Law covers boats and watercraft, not just motor vehicles and motorcycles. The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act was passed into law in 1970 by the California Legislature to protect consumers from buying or leasing defective consumer goods.

About the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act

As one of the most extensive and powerful pieces of legislation, California’s Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (a.k.a. California’s Lemon Law) protects consumers who have purchased defective vehicles and other consumer goods. This means that your boat or watercraft is also covered by this law. Prior to the passage of this law, Californian’s were fighting a battle they couldn’t win.

Since then, California’s Lemon Law has leveled the playing field and enabled boat and watercraft owners to take on that industry in much the same way as they can with the automotive industry. However, despite the consumer protections afforded by this law, the average consumer should still consider consulting with an experienced boats and watercraft Lemon lawyer in Cathedral City with the Braff Law Firm.

So how does the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act protect consumers? Basically, the law covers an extensive range of retail consumer goods including boats and other watercraft. According to CA Civil Code § 1790-1795.8, the Lemon Law mandates that consumer goods be covered by an implied warranty of fitness and merchantability. This means that the product or products you purchase:

Although California’s Lemon Law is one of the most powerful consumer protection laws in the United States, cases involving Lemon Law claims can be extremely complex and difficult to litigate. Unfortunately, there is a lot of variation in the law. The watercraft industry will use every trick possible to protect their bottom line. Hence the need to speak with an experienced Boats and Watercraft Lemon attorney in Cathedral City with the Braff Law Firm.

Additionally, we will need proof that your boat or watercraft is malfunctioning. That is why you need to document everything that you are dealing with. It is a fact that a manufacturer or a seller is not going to help you. That is why you need to be proactive and keep the receipts, work order copies, and any other document that can prove that repairs were done on the defects.

Qualifying for Eligibility Under California’s Lemon Law

First and foremost, in order for a boat or watercraft to be covered by, or eligible under, California’s Lemon Law, its defects must be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Second, one or more of the defects must impair the safety, use, or value of the boat or watercraft. And finally, the manufacturer must be afforded a reasonable number of repair attempts where the defects are concerned. Boats and other watercraft may also be eligible because they aren’t the same quality as other similar boats and watercraft.

When is a Boat or Another Watercraft Considered a Lemon?

According to California’s Lemon Law, the boat or watercraft manufacturer is required to reimburse you for all repair and replacement costs. However, before it can be deemed a “lemon”, the boat or watercraft must meet the following criteria:

Consumers can protect themselves from buying a lemon by dealing with a reputable retailer. Just remember, if you’ve discovered that your boat or watercraft is defective, you owe it to yourself to consult with a boats and watercraft Lemon lawyer in Cathedral City with the Braff Law Firm.

What Boats and Watercrafts Do the California’s Lemon Law Cover?

Demi Armstrong
5/5

I have used Braff Legal Group before to help me with a lemon law issue and they were very helpful. I called them up and they were able to answer all my questions on the phone. The process of working with them was very straightforward, which was perfect for me because I am not good with filling out legal documents.
