Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
State of Michigan vs. Canary Tree Service, a Florida corporation, and Justin Hartmann, an individual; Holtslander and Sons, a Michigan limited liability company; Garrison McKinney, a Mississippi limited liability company; E & B Contracting, a Kentucky limited liability company
The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven.
On June 3, 2024, the Michigan Attorney General filed a complaint in 30th Circuit Court in Ingham County. The Attorney General alleges the business is in violation of state law and the Michigan Consumer Protection Act.
According to the complaint, Holtslander and Sons and other companies named in the complaint targeted consumers who suffered tree damage during a storm. The suit alleges these companies were recruited by Canary Tree Services to perform storm clean-up work in 2021 and 2022, and that Holtslander continued in 2023. As alleged, the businesses misled consumers about the nature of the agreements they were signing, the cost of the services, potential financial responsibility for costs not covered by insurance, and their legal rights and obligations.
The matter is pending. For more details, see the Complaint and Attorney General's press release.
