What role does the dealer play after I hire an attorney?

Plain-English Answer

The dealer is usually where warranty repairs happen, but the manufacturer is the Song-Beverly defendant. After you hire counsel, communications about repurchase or replacement typically go through the manufacturer’s Lemon Law department or defense firm, not your salesperson. Continue to document any new repair visits, but let your attorney coordinate demands and deadlines.
