Verified Consumer Complaint
Form
Attached you will find the
Verified
Complaint form. On the second page of the form, please write a
complete summary of your complaint and include copies (you should
retain the originals) of all contracts, canceled checks, advertisements, or
any other documents that deal with the subject matter. The form does not
need to be notarized.
Once your complaint has been received by this office, it will
be reviewed to determine if it is appropriate for mediation, further
investigation, formal legal action and/or referral to another agency.
Please understand that the District Attorney cannot act as your private
attorney and the Division has very limited resources and authority to
intervene in private civil disputes. Many such disputes must be referred
to private mediation, Small Claims Court or a private attorney.
We will contact you by mail approximately 2 weeks after
receipt of your complaint. We may notify you that we have forwarded your
complaint to another agency who is in a better position to assist you or we
may inform you that you will need to take your dispute to private mediation,
Small Claims Court or a private attorney. Please understand that by
filing this complaint, you have not and should not delay or foreclose other
legal options and remedies available to you. State and Federal law limit
the period of time during which a private legal action may be filed and you
may wish to contact a private attorney concerning these issues.
Please note that a copy of your complaint may be forwarded to
the other party in order to determine their position on any disputed facts and
to assess the chances of informal resolution of your complaint. Finally,
please understand that the information provided will, in most cases, become
accessible to others under the Kansas Open Records Act.
