Relating to prohibiting certain deceptive trade practices by businesses assisting veterans with Department of Veterans Affairs claims.

SB 2968 prohibits businesses that assist veterans with Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) claims from using deceptive practices, directly affecting these businesses and veterans who rely on their services. The bill bans specific actions like misleading veterans about costs, confusing them about services offered, providing personalized claim advice without VA accreditation, falsely claiming VA affiliation, or accessing veterans' VA benefit information without authorization. Violations carry a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per offense. The law aims to protect veterans from exploitation by unscrupulous claim assistance businesses.
