Litigation under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) — which regulates marketing by telephone and fax and prohibits certain automated calls and text messages — has increased dramatically in the last five years. The TCPA provides penalties of $500-$1,500 for each call, text message, or fax that violates the statute, without any cap on aggregate damages. MLK has extensive experience assisting its clients recover damages for unwanted “robo-calls” and texts. Our noteworthy cases include:
- Burk v. Direct Energy, LP, No. 4:19-cv-00663 (S.D. Tex.)
- Thomas v. Fin. Corp of America, No, 3:19-cv-00152 (N.D. Tex.)
