A company specializing in placing senior citizens in retirement homes is faced with proposed class action claims. The suit alleges that the company falsely advertises its services as free while steering business away from retirement communities that do not engage in its “pay-to-play” referral model. This legal action questions the transparency of their business practices and whether elderly individuals and their families are being misled in their choices for retirement living.
