A Las Vegas attorney has filed a pair of class-action lawsuits against second-hand ticket resellers, accusing them of violating Nevada’s recently enacted ticket resale laws.
Attorney Michael Gayan of the Kemp Jones LLP law firm on Thursday filed lawsuits in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas against Vegas.com LLC on behalf of Glendale, California, resident Rachel Cachon, and against SeatGeek Inc. on behalf of Las Vegas resident Mars Carbonell, as well as other similarly situated individuals buying tickets.
In both lawsuits, the defendants are accused of “ambushing consumers purchasing tickets” by enticing them with fee-less offers then charging hidden fees customers were not expecting to pay before the final transaction was made.
