Cell Phone Repair Owners Sue Parent Assurant Alleging Deceitful Practices
When insurance giant Assurant Inc. bought CPR Cell Phone Repair in 2019, many operators in the 825-unit mobile device repair franchise were hoping for more business from their new parent. But CPR's Independent Owners Association is now suing Assurant, claiming "it changed the deal" and imposed "onerous new burdens on its franchisees, wholly to benefit itself at their expense," the lawsuit claims.
