Caught Up in a SNAP Scuffle? Spodek Law Group Has Got Your Back

Picture this – you’re an established grocer, licensed, carrying out earnest operations and accepting EBT cards for transactions. All is well until one day, you’re hit by a SNAP Violation Letter from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). This letter accuses you of breaching SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) norms, backed by heaps of apparent evidence. Sounds grim, right? That’s because it is. Miss the 10-day response deadline, and you might have to say goodbye to accepting EBT payments.

A Close Look at the SNAP Program

The SNAP initiative, backed by the U.S. Government and implemented by each state, hands out monthly food benefits through EBT transaction cards, a parallel to our dear old debit cards. While it seems to be run differently in every state, the chords are pulled by Uncle Sam himself.

What Makes a SNAP Violation?

A SNAP violation can take many forms, such as SNAP benefit trafficking, which is fraudulently dealing with the benefits, wink-wink. Plus, if a store uses SNAP benefits for non-food items like alcohol or tobacco, they’re breaching SNAP rules. What’s more, a violation pops up when SNAP benefits are accepted from an unentitled person, or when someone knowingly and intentionally falsifies information on the EBT program application. The list goes on, varying from a store exceeding its food sales with SNAP redemptions to employee-credit customers with EBT benefits, and sometimes, a USDA ban resulting from being disqualified from the WIC program.

Your Friend in the Face of SNAP Violations: Spodek Law Group

A SNAP Violation Letter, with its charges and grave consequences, is a monumental issue that can lead to suspension or revocation of your EBT license, leaving you stranded without SNAP payments. At this juncture, you need someone who knows the law like the back of his hand – Todd Spodek, from the Spodek Law Group.

Countless clients can vouch for their prowess in handling SNAP Violation Defense cases. With Spodek Law Group, you gain an experienced partner to navigate you through all three phases of a SNAP Violation action.

Phase 1: The Charge Letter

Once a SNAP Violation Letter lands at your doorstep, you’ve got to respond within ten days. With Spodek Law Group, they take charge of all USDA communications, gather relevant evidence, and draft a comprehensive and precise response.

Phase 2: The Administrative Appeal

If the USDA insists a violation happened, they’ll send another letter outlining their call for store suspension or disqualification. You’ve got just ten days to counter this, and failure in doing so swings the pendulum in USDA’s favor for good. But don’t worry, Spodek Law Group goes all out to appeal this decision, accrue extra evidence, draft an appealing brief loaded with information, evidence, case law, regulation, and federal code to prove the initial decision wrong.

Phase 3: The Judicial Appeal

If USDA remains oblivious to your appeal, get ready to hit the local Federal District Court for Judicial Review. You’re in luck because Spodek Law Group lawyers have aced many of these cases in different states and can handle your case.

Remember, a SNAP Violation Letter is not a small affair, and speaking with officials without a lawyer can backfire. The USDA believes they have solid evidence, and any conversation or presumed admission of guilt can be used against you.
