Lawsuit Filed Against L.A. Weight Loss

Oregon's Attorney General has filed a lawsuit against L.A. Weight Loss, alleging false and misleading representations about the costs, fees, products and benefits in the program.

State Attorney General Hardy Meyers said L.A. Weight Loss has been making false claims about the cost of its programs and pushed customers to buy its nutrition bars to use as a food supplement.

The local franchise for L.A. Weight Loss, NWM, Inc., is fighting back and said the problems are old issues and have been fixed for months.

The Oregon L.A. Weight Loss franchisee currently has locations in Clackamas, Corvallis, Eugene, Gresham, Lloyd (Portland), McMinnville, South Salem, Sherwood, Tanasbourne (Portland), Washington Square (Tigard) and Wilsonville. It also operated locations in Bend and North Salem.
