A Conversation with Nicholas Smyth, Senior Deputy Attorney General and Assistant Director for Consumer Financial Protection in the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General
We discuss recent and ongoing enforcement activity of the PA AG involving consumer financial services. Our conversation focuses on activity directed at: Auto title lenders for alleged violations of PA usury law; national banks for alleged CARD Act violations; furniture retailers for alleged “hang tag” law violations; home sellers for alleged violations of mortgage laws arising from the use of contracts for deed; and phone scams.
Alan Kaplinsky, Ballard Spahr Senior Counsel, hosts the conversation.
