Burl was part of a panel at the Texas Auto Body Trade Show talking about legislation in our industry. Burl Richards is the owner of Burl's Collision Center in Henderson, Texas and he is fighting for consumer's rights and safety...and I LOVE IT!

Listen in as we talk about how he fights for consumer safety.
The fight Burl recently won was based off: Do you believe a repair plan is necessary?
In his district court there were 12 jurors and a judge that decided a blueprint repair was necessary and warranted!

At the trade show he and his panel talked about different aspects of legislation plus the RTA and how it covers a lot of aspects for OEM procedures, processes and rates.

The takeaways Burl would like for people to have in class today would be: keep supporting auto body associations when it comes to phone calls, emails, money, and time. It is time to come together as an industry for our consumer's safety.
Not everyone can fight the fight but everyone can do their part!
