Missteps in Defending TCPA Violations No matter how strong the facts are in a Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) lawsuit, some defense attorneys will take the defendant’s money to draft frivolous motions. These motions often have little chance of success. A clear illustration of this can be found in Dobronski v. 1-800-Law-Firm, 2025 WL 1386024…

As long as there have been TCPA lawsuits, defendants have been cycling back and forth between countersuing and not countersuing the plaintiffs.

Move, Inc., No. № 2:22-cv-04948-ODW…

A bunch of insurance companies have a great little scam going. They employ the use of insurance agents, who then in turn employ the use of telemarketers. The insurance companies give the insurance agents the use of their computer system to quote and sell their insurance, but when sued for the tcpa-violating telemarketing calls, disclaim…

TCPA lawsuit Klassen v. Solidquote, 2025 WL 3516275 (D. Co. Nov. 19, 2025) demonstrates what happens when a TCPA case isn’t built very well and it opens the door to a patron saint of telemarketing looking out for their own. First, the background. Everything is taken from the court filings, I have no personal knowledge…
