Consumer transactions: public social services: unreasonable fees.

Abstract

Existing federal law prohibits an individual from acting as an agent or attorney in the preparation, presentation, or prosecution of any claim under laws administered by the United States Secretary of Veterans Affairs unless the individual has been recognized for those purposes, and further regulates the fees that may be charged for those services. Existing law, the Consumers Legal Remedies Act, prohibits a person from charging or receiving an unreasonable fee to prepare, aid, or advise certain persons in procuring, maintaining, or securing public social services, as defined. This bill would include activities and functions administered or supervised by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or the California Department of Veterans Affairs, including pension benefits, as public social services for purposes of that prohibition.
