Attorney General Ashley Moody took legal action against Modern Concepts Construction LLC and its owners Armando Almirall, Raman Chopra, and Michael Crowder, for allegedly using a variety of sales forces, misrepresentations and finance companies to induce consumers into entering expensive residential solar agreements. After securing the financing, the defendants then paid themselves without completing installations, and in some cases, even damaged consumers’ homes.
Action also states: deceptive and unscrupulous business practices were extreme, from abandoning contracts and damaging homes to forging applications, causing liens on homes and even threatening consumers with legal action—all to unjustly enrich themselves and fund a lavish lifestyle. We are taking legal action to permanently ban these scam artists from ever conducting business in Florida again and seeking restitution for consumers.”
The investigation further revealed MC Solar enticed consumers with federal tax incentives, guaranteed 25-year warranties and misrepresented financing costs and interest rates. Many consumers ended up owing monthly payments on costly loans and some consumers even paid out of pocket to make systems operational. The company also failed to pay third parties, causing claims of liens on consumer property. When some consumers cancelled agreements, the defendants hired an attorney and sent demand letters with increased invoices and attorney fees. Records show the defendants transferred funds from the company account to personal accounts, including accounts belonging to friends and family members.
The defendant’s actions violate Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, the Florida Home Solicitation Sale Act and other Florida Statutes. The civil action seeks to permanently ban the defendants from engaging in certain activities related to the solar business. The action also requests injunctive relief, restitution and civil penalties.
