In April 2024, together with our co-counsel Anderson Santiago PLLC, SGB filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of current and former tenants and consumers against Tecton Corporation and its collection agency I.Q. Data, alleging violations of consumer laws, including the Residential Landlord Tenant Act. Disputed charges include hold fees, lease cancellation fees, and security deposits. Tecton Corporation attempted to have the case dismissed without a trial, but the court denied the company’s request.

On December 30, 2025 the court determined that this lawsuit should proceed as a class action, with trial set for March 23, 2026 in King County Superior Court. Follow the links below to view important documents in the case.
