# Lemon Law Report (lemon.law)

> Data journalism on California lemon law (the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty
> Act): what cases actually pay. Verdicts, buyback economics, attorney-fee
> awards, defect complaint trends, and the state's new rapid-repurchase
> (AB 1755 / SB 26) opt-in system. Every figure is sourced to a public record —
> court dockets and rulings, NHTSA complaint files, and California state
> registries — and each article lists its sources with links.

Published by LEMONLAW, INC. Editorial rules: allegations, owner reports, and
court findings are always labeled as such; past results never imply future
outcomes; firms and counsel are named from the public record, consumers are
not (absent consent).
