Amazon Attorney: Why Work With a Lawyer?
So, your Amazon Seller Account has been suspended. Now what?
Whether this is an issue you’ve dealt with in the past as an Amazon Seller or not, your first priority is getting your account reinstated as quickly as possible. You may seek help online from a variety of resources – firsthand accounts of other sellers who have experienced account suspension, forums, blogs, and more.
You will likely consider enlisting the help of a professional in order to get your account back as soon as possible as well. But there are some important factors to consider before you seek the help of anyone other than a lawyer to get your Amazon Seller account back:
- Non-Lawyers Have No Obligation to Keep Your Information Private. If you reveal any information about your business practices, mistakes as a seller, or violations on your account that you know are your fault, a non-lawyer is under no obligation to keep this confidential. They can even flip the switch on you and use the information you provide against you. When you work with a licensed attorney, you have the benefit of Attorney Client Privilege – that means any information you disclose must be kept 100% confidential by law.
- Non-Lawyers Lack the Legal Expertise to Help You Get Your Account Back. Common reasons for account suspensions involve buyer complaints, trademark violations, and much more. Unlike non-lawyers or “consultants” who may be available to help you get your account back, a licensed attorney is able to use the law to find the best ways to approach buyers and get them to remove complaints, as well as utilize the law to deal with trademark and copyright issues.
- Non-Lawyers Cannot Seek Lost Profits You’re Entitled To. When you work with an attorney, you can reap the benefits of gaining back the profits you lost from your listings being removed or sales you would have made if your account had not been suspended. Licensed attorneys have the ability to use the law to help you get back the profits you deserve.
