No matter how disgusting it is, I don't see how the agent could be sued for it. It's no different than LH agents selling over priced FE policies.
It is very different. If LH is generating a lead and gives it to an agent, LH is what should be pitched. An independent agent can sell whatever carrier they want. If the agent wants to risk that big of a chargeback and not do the best thing for the client, the client just might end up going somewhere else. No excuse for lying about it, but not selling the least expensive product available doesn't really amount to scumbag level. Bad business? Probably.
