Below are the outstanding challenges which can be found at http://www.huffmansservices.com/ and each challenge below is referenced by its corresponding BBB Code of Advertising Principle. 

    BBB asked the business to substantiate the following statements:

    1a.  This is the only way to proceed to receive a reduced prison sentence.

    1b.  I have been assisting prisoners since 1984.  

    1c.  The truth, however, is that the only sure way of receiving a sentence reduction is cooperation with authorities whether it be directly or through a third party.

    1g.  “We may be able to reduce your sentence by making a donation to a charity of by arranging volunteers for an organization; or perhaps there is a victim that needs immediate assistance, or through a donation to victims; services”

    1. Basic Principles of the Code

    1.1 The primary responsibility for truthful and non-deceptive advertising rests with the advertiser. Advertisers should be prepared to substantiate any objective claims or offers made before publication or broadcast. Upon request, they should present such substantiation promptly to the advertising medium or BBB.

    1.2 Advertisements which are untrue, misleading, deceptive, fraudulent, falsely disparaging of competitors, or insincere offers to sell, shall not be used.

    1.3 An advertisement as a whole may be misleading by implication, although every sentence separately considered may be literally true.

    1.4 Misrepresentation may result not only from direct statements, but by omitting or obscuring a material fact.

    Challenge #2 - Refer to the BBB Code of Advertising Principle #34:  Claimed Results

    2a.  We can also lower your court costs, fines, and restitution.

    2b.  We will convert your financial assets into a sentence reduction by any number of methods

    2c.  The average time for the process is 12 months

    2d.  the process normally takes 18 months

    2e.  The only sure way of receiving a sentence reduction is cooperation with authorities whether it be directly or through a third party.

    34. Claimed Results

    Claims relating to performance, energy savings, safety, efficacy or results for a product or service should be based on recent and competent testing or other objective data.

    As of August 23, 2023 the above issues remain outstanding in the BBB’s request for revision, clarification or modification.
