Are you plagued by robo-calls and harassing debt collectors?

Things are different today. There’s a better chance of a stranger or a robot on the other end of the line than someone you like. Many people no longer answer their phones for fear of robocalls and harassing debt collectors.

What Is the Telephone Consumer Protection Act or TCPA?

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is a federal law in the United States enacted in 1991 to regulate telemarketing calls, automated phone calls, and unsolicited text messages.

Key provisions of the TCPA include:

• Restrictions on Telemarketing Calls: The TCPA prohibits telemarketers from making unsolicited calls to consumers using automated dialing systems, prerecorded voice messages, or artificial voices without the prior written consent of the recipient.
• National Do-Not-Call Registry: The TCPA established the National Do-Not-Call Registry, which allows consumers to add phone numbers to a no-call list. Telemarketers are required to update their call lists periodically to comply with the registry.
• Opt-Out Mechanism: Telemarketers must provide a clear and easy-to-use opt-out mechanism for consumers during their calls, allowing individuals to request that they no longer receive calls from that telemarketer.
• Restrictions on Unsolicited Faxes: The TCPA also includes provisions regulating unsolicited fax advertisements and requires opt-out mechanisms for recipients.
• Restrictions on Text Messages: The TCPA applies to unsolicited text messages, requiring written consent from consumers before sending automated marketing texts.
• Restrictions on Artificial or Prerecorded Voice Calls: The TCPA restricts artificial or prerecorded voice calls for telemarketing purposes, requiring written consent from recipients.
• Privacy and Consent: Consent under the TCPA must be unambiguous, and individuals can revoke their consent at any time.
• Enforcement: The TCPA allows consumers to sue telemarketers and seek damages for violations, with statutory damages ranging from $500 to $1,500 per violation, depending on whether the violation was negligent or willful.

Violators of the TCPA can face significant financial penalties, making compliance with its provisions essential for businesses engaged in telemarketing and automated communication practices.

Other Debt Collector Harassment Laws

The U.S. government provides other protections against debt collectors. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) regulates debt collector harassment laws in the United States at the federal level. State laws can also provide additional protections depending on the situation.

Here are some critical aspects of debt collector harassment laws and the protections they offer:

• Prohibited Practices: Debt collectors can’t harass or intimidate consumers, including threats of violence, obscene or abusive language, and repeated phone calls.
• Time Restrictions: Debt collectors cannot contact consumers before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m. unless alternative contact times are agreed upon.
• Deceptive Practices: Debt collectors are prohibited from using deceptive or misleading practices, such as lying about the amount of the debt, implying they are attorneys, or sending bogus documents that appear to be from a government agency when they are not.
• Stop Requests: Consumers can request that debt collectors stop communication. When they receive a request in writing, the debt collector can only contact the consumer to acknowledge receipt and notify them of specific actions or that collection efforts have ended.
• Validation of Debt: Debt collectors must provide written notice of debt details within five days of initial contact, including the amount, the name of the creditor, and the consumer’s rights to dispute the debt. Consumers have 30 days to dispute in writing.
• Privacy Protections: Debt collectors are generally prohibited from discussing your debt with third parties, such as family, friends, or employers unless they have the consumer’s consent or a court order.
• Legal Remedies: Consumers have legal recourse if debt collectors violate the FDCPA or state laws. They can sue the debt collector for damages, including actual, statutory, and attorney’s fees. Government agencies may also act against violators.

Consumers subjected to debt collector harassment should keep records of all statements and refer to an attorney experienced in consumer protection laws to understand their rights and potential courses of action.

Report violations to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the California Attorney General’s office for investigation.

A debt collection lawyer can help you understand these laws, their meaning in your situation, and any options you might have.

How Can Our San Diego TCPA Lawyers Help?

A Telephone Consumer Protection Act lawyer concentrates on cases related to the TCPA, telemarketing calls, automated phone calls, and unsolicited text messages.

Here are some of the things a TCPA lawyer does:

• Assessing Violations: A TCPA lawyer evaluates potential violations of the TCPA by individuals, companies, or organizations. They examine the facts of the case to determine if there has been a breach of the law, such as unsolicited robocalls, automated messages, or unsolicited text messages.
• Advising Clients: TCPA lawyers advise individuals who believe their rights under the TCPA have been violated. They explain the legal options available and help clients understand their rights and potential remedies.
• Filing Lawsuits: If a TCPA lawyer determines that a violation has occurred and the client wishes to pursue legal action, they can file a lawsuit on behalf of the client against the responsible party. This may include telemarketing companies, debt collectors, or other entities that have engaged in prohibited communication practices.
• Class Action Lawsuits: In many TCPA cases, multiple individuals may have experienced similar violations. TCPA lawyers may initiate class action lawsuits on behalf of a group of affected individuals, making the legal process more efficient and allowing individuals to seek compensation collectively.
• Negotiating Settlements: TCPA lawyers negotiate with the defendants to reach settlements on behalf of their clients. These settlements may involve compensation for the harm caused by TCPA violations.
• Representing Clients in Court: If a TCPA case goes to trial, the lawyer represents the client, presenting evidence, making legal arguments, and advocating for the client’s rights and interests.
• Compliance Guidance: TCPA lawyers also work with businesses and organizations to ensure compliance with TCPA regulations. They guide clients on structuring telemarketing and communication practices to avoid TCPA violations.
• Monitoring Legal Developments: TCPA lawyers stay updated on changes in TCPA regulations and court decisions related to TCPA cases. This ensures they can provide their clients with the most current and effective legal strategies.
• Seeking Compensation: The primary goal of a TCPA lawyer is to help clients seek compensation for damages caused by TCPA violations. This may include financial compensation for statutory damages, actual damages, and injunctive relief to prevent further violations.

A TCPA lawyer addresses violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and provides legal representation to those affected, helping them seek compensation and justice for the harm they have endured.
