IMPERIAL, Mo. — September 9, 2026 — TeleJustice Academy, LLC today released New York Consumer Justice: The Ultimate DIY Guide to Stop Getting Ripped Off, Fight Deceptive Companies, and Win the Compensation You Deserve Under New York General Business Law §§ 349 and 350.
It is the New York volume of the national Consumer Justice series and the first New York-specific consumer justice playbook built for a DIY lawsuit in New York — not a pamphlet, and not a law-firm pitch.
New York’s Attorney General logged nearly 30,000 consumer complaints in 2025. Retail scams, internet fraud, and auto-dealer disputes led the list. False advertising in New York, misleading advertising, unsubstantiated health claims, product labeling games, hidden fees, bait and switch, and dark patterns in subscriptions are not side issues. They are the marketplace. New York consumer protection law already gives private people a way to answer.
GBL 349 and GBL 350 — New York General Business Law §§ 349 and 350 — ban deceptive business practices and false advertising. A private plaintiff does not have to prove the company meant to lie. The test is consumer-oriented conduct that is materially misleading to a reasonable consumer and that caused actual injury. Remedies can include actual damages or the statutory floor, discretionary treble damages in New York, and attorney’s fees. The statute of limitations on GBL 349 is three years. This book is written so a reader can use that clock instead of watching it run out.
Author Christopher Prosser, BA, AA, CLA, NP, a 42-year complex litigation paralegal and Founder & CEO of Attorney’s Acquisitions, LLC and TeleJustice Academy, LLC, walks the reader from the first screenshot to how to collect a judgment in New York:
- How to spot a claim that fails a reasonable-consumer test
- How to name the real defendant, not the brand on the box
- How to write a demand letter in New York
- How to draft and serve a complaint, including a pro se consumer lawsuit and a small claims New York consumer filing
- How discovery, subpoenas, summary judgment, and trial work in New York courts
- How a private case sits next to New York Attorney General consumer complaints and a class action in New York consumer matter
Inside are full-length educational examples and the landmark files every New York shopper has already seen on a shelf: Cheerios cholesterol claims, Frosted Mini-Wheats “attentiveness,” Rice Krispies immunity, POM Wonderful, Red Bull, Volkswagen “clean diesel,” Skechers Shape-Ups, and Airborne.
