The one and only Wolf of the TCPA-- Anthony Paronich has rejoined the TCPAWorld crew to talk TCPA, #biglaw, McKesson and so much more.

Paronich is one of the best known and most feared Plaintiff's lawyers in the country. His TCPA skills are unmatched and as the Czar describes him, the wolf has "God-tier situational awareness" that makes him nearly impossible to defeat in class litigation.

Amongst the secrets to his success is a complete lack of pride and ego when it comes to his litigation portfolio. If a case is weak--or when his opponent is powerful-- he may step back and let it go. But when he "green flags" a case there is no stopping his.

Yes, the Wolf feasts like no other and he is always looking for an easy kill.

How do you avoid falling prey? Well WATCH THIS EPISODE because Paronich lays out exactly what he's looking for-- the formula that will take a regular TCPA class action into one he will take all the way for an eight figure class recovery!

The Wolf does not hold back on the TCPA, his evaluation of cases, and his thoughts on #biglaw and whether they should even be playing in the "deep waters" of TCPAWorld.

Before we get to the big interview we cover several critical topics, including:

1. That MASSIVE FCC Consent Order penalizing Assurance IQ and Media Alpha $140MM.

2. The case of Isaacs v. USHealth Advisors, LLC, No. 3:24-CV-00216-LMM, 2025 WL 2268359 (N.D. Ga. Aug. 7, 2025) holding cellular phones can be "residential" for DNC purposes;

3. The CPPA's crazy effort to force Tractor Supply Co. to produce records related to conduct that pre-dates the statute (crazy)!;

4. The twin rulings of Jones, et al. v. Blackstone, 2025 WL 2042764 (C.D. Ill. July 21, 2025) and Wilson v. Skopos 2025 WL 2029274 (D. Or. July 21, 2025) going in different directions on the same issue! and

5. The incredible ruling in Jones v. Safr Technologies 2025 WL 2256659 (D. Mass. Aug. 7, 2025) holding "calls" do not include text messages!

Wild and important topics each. Be sure to tune in!

This is our most packed (and longest) stacked, beefy podcast ever!

Two stunning #FTC consent decrees against Assurance IQ and Media Alpha.

These two companies—represented by #biglaw firms that obviously don’t know how the industry works—just agreed to pay $145 million in combined penalties AND agreed to consent orders that give away control over large amounts of their business operations, accepting unnecessary standards and oversight that will damage operations for years to come.

Unfortunately, there is going to be backlash on the entire industry now. Some of the provisions of the orders will impact third-party partners, requiring massive shifts in how consent is gathered, and data sets are shared.

There is no question this is just the beginning.

While the FCC tried (and failed) to change the industry with one-to-one consent, the FTC looks to be here to finish the job leveraging the TSR. (If you aren’t looking for the safety of R.E.A.C.H. right now you really don’t get it…)

In this video industry’s most trusted attorneys—”Queenie” Puja J. Amin and the “Czar” Eric J. Troutman— break down these incredibly important developments and what it means for the industry as a whole in a new FREE (for 500 people) webinar this Thursday.

Find out: What did Assurance and Media Alpha actually do wrong?

Why did they reach a stunning $145MM in monetary penalties?

Why did the FTC target these companies– and who might be next?

What STUNNING non-monetary terms these companies agreed to; and How YOUR company might be impacted.

Its going to be a hell of a webinar and one lead generators simply cannot afford to miss.

And, of course, it all leads up to the big show- -Contact.io– where the Troutman Amin, LLP stage will be BACK and the Czar will be providing a critical breakdown on everything you need to know on the TCPA right now!

Well, it has been a while, but the team is back with the 33rd episode of Deserve to Win and it was a fantastic episode.

The team breaks down several major TCPAWorld developments before connecting with TCPA plaintiff's attorney Chris Gold to talk about why he opened his own firm, this strategy for pursuing TCPA cases and what he thinks the future may hold.

We talk about the huge TCPA class action filed by Nomorobo over calls to a honeypot;

We talk about the massive new change to CIPA that might destroy these cases in the future;

We talk through the new court ruling holding offers to buy houses are not solicitations; and

The new standard for when a court will find a defendant lacks a required DNC policy.

Indeed, Queenie explains why a new CHANGE in your DNC policy is likely required to follow the rules.

It all makes for an incredible episode and one you CANNOT miss!

Deserve to Win is back with its 32nd episode, and there's a ton going on.

First, the Czar introduces a new team member-- Maxwell Levins--who is absolutely killing it even though he is only a young attorney.

Then the team breaks down numerous developments, including:

1. The huge increase in TCPA cases;

2. The new POWER RANKINGS of top TCPA defense lawyers;

3. The disastrous settlement by Honda of a claim under California's privacy statute;

4. The effort by 28 state AGs to undo IMC's win on FCC one-to-one;

5. A big win for defendants protecting the attorney-client privilege; and

6. Capital One is caught up in something messy...

Then we get to the big interview.

George Baseluos is a great Troutman Amin, LLP client who wanted to come on the show and talk about what a great experience he has had with the firm. We didn't pay him a dime to do this. He has just been so pleased with our services he wanted to tell everyone about.

We talked about three of his big recent wins, including the time Queenie got a TCPA litigator to drop a case and walk away at the end of a deposition.

Incredible stuff.

Small business owners in particular, will appreciate this one as George explains why he has taken on the expense of fighting these frivolous lawsuits-- he is doing it to protect himself but also to protect other small businesses out there who are victimized by similar lawsuits but who may not have the ability to fight for themselves.

George really is a standup guy and runs an incredible business that continues to grow because he does things the right way. And that really is the lesson here-- act compliantly, and you can still enjoy tremendous success!

Indeed, that's how you Deserve to Win!

We have had some INCREDIBLE episodes of Deserve to Win so far, but without question our 31st edition blows them all away.

PhoneBurner CEO Chris Sorensen joins the podcast and bravely discusses the MONSTROUS mistake made by the FCC that nearly destroyed his business.

In this never-before-told story directly from Sorensen you will learn how the FCC shutdown order--which was supposed to be limited to a single caller--resulted in ever carrier in the country shutting down PhoneBurner and its THOUSANDS of customers for nearly a week.

Absolutely insane.

And to hear from Chris about his efforts to restore the platform and save his--and thousands of other businesses--reliant on carriers connecting his calls it becomes that much more apparent why the FCC must act AND QUICKLY on the critical R.E.A.C.H. petition designed to assure ease of telecom transmission and return sanity to telecommunications.

It is an incredible story and one everybody in TCPAWorld should pause to hear.

Before we get there, of course, we break down a bunch of huge TCPAWorld news including:

1. The launch of Czar Gold cryptocurrency!;

2. The LCOC III announcement;

3. A deeper discussion of the R.E.A.C.H. petition;

4. A story of a fax case that has massive TCPA dimensions;

5. The change in judicial philosophy making it harder for Plaintiff's to bring prerecorded call litigation; and

6. The big difference between two TCPA provisions that make policies so important.

We KNOW you will love this episode as it was absolutely incredible to hear from Chris and the whole team really delivered stellar performances from beginning to end.

Love you all! Enjoy.

So last Friday was the biggest day in TCPAWorld history so far with the massive one-two punch of the FCC staying the new TCPA one-to-one rule literally just minutes before the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the ruling altogether. 

All of this minutes before the close of business the business night before the rule was set to go into effect today!

My goodness.

It was high drama throughout the night, however, with the CEO of a publicly traded company then specifically questioning REACH's efforts in his own ill-advised attempt to take credit for the rulings. Just magnificent stuff.

TCPAWorld readership has been off the charts all weekend, and now you can enjoy Troutman Amin, LLP's official analysis and reactions to all of these developments and--most importantly--its breakdown of the decision in IMC v. FCC and what happens next.

Watch the podcast now to hear the Czar, Queenie and the Countess discuss:

The lead up to the ruling and the last-minute efforts to stay the case;

The incredible last-minute stay issued by the FCC;

Lending Tree's insane effort to take credit for the stay and claim of a supposed secret deal; and most importantly

The ruling of the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals striking down one-to-one consent:

What does this mean for lead generation?

What was the basis for the court's ruling?

What happens next for compliance efforts?

This really is the most important podcast episode we have put out and it is yours FREE to watch (and re-watch) RIGHT NOW!!!:

Well the entire Troutman Amin, LLP team got together in Birmingham, Alabama in December, 2024 for the firm's famous annual retreat and holiday party!!!!

And the first thing the Czar an co. did when they landed was got together and recorded a wonderful podcast episode for everyone!

Its a wonderful feel-good podcast focused on the incredible year Troutman Amin, LLP had and introducing a bunch of new faces to the team!

Viewers get to meet new attorneys Steven, Blake and Kayla for the first time and are also greeted by all their long time faves in this special-edition podcast co-hosted by the incredible Countess-- Jenniffer Cabrera!

Per usual the team also breaks down several critical developments, including new CIPA, TCPA and data broker registration requirements!

The team also signs off with special thoughts for the new year and with expressions of warm gratitude and LOVE for all of our clients, friends and supporters.

It all adds up to being the most special episode of Deserve to Win ever-- and one that really highlights the spirit and culture of the GREATEST LAW FIRM ON EARTH-- Troutman Amin, LLP!

Well you didn't think we'd let you go into the holidays without a fresh and wonderful Deserve to Win podcast episode to enjoy did you?

In our 28th edition of the podcast we sit down with TCPA plaintiff's lawyer Mark Javitch as he explains why he focuses his practice on only going after real scumbags.

In fact although he has been litigating for about 5 years in the space we have only run across him a couple of times because, unlike many plaintiff's lawyers, he isn't just chasing dollars-- he is chasing bad guys.

Javitch is the guy behind that incredible ruling looking to lock up a dialing platform operator for refusing to produce records in response to a subpoena-- very aggressive. But it was interesting to catch up with the guy more broadly.

Queenie knows Javitch well because she cleaned his clock and earned a dismissal of a TCPA suit he brought not long ago. The ruling stood out in marked contrast to the LOSSES suffered by other TCPA defendants in similar cases recently. To Javitch's credit he conceded Puja had crushed him and was good natured about the case--bringing it up himself to draw the sting.

Was also very interesting to hear his thoughts about the election and the new one-to-one rule (likely) going into effect in January. You definitely won't want to miss the interview.

Before we get there, however, we breakdown a few big developments:

First, what is going on with these bad rulings? Humana and Millennia Tax relief were just hit with terrible (and very short) rulings that leave one wondering if courts are really paying attention to TCPA cases right now.

Second, Domino's Pizza is allegedly using AI technology to field inbound calls without consent of the consumer. The problem? Allegedly Conversenow--the vendor providing the AI platform-- is apparently able to listen in/receive information about the call in real time. IF this is true it is a massive problem under CIPA and might lead to huge damages ($5k a website visit!) The Dame explains.

Third, DoorDash is sued in ANOTHER big TCPA suit alleging over 500 prerecorded calls sent to a consumer without consent. Eesh. But is there any truth to the allegations? The Czar discusses with Tammana.

Fourth-- the big one-- Dawson v. Porch. Three corporate officers of Porch are sued for millions (billions?) in a TCPA suit involving over 100 plaintiffs who allegedly received b2b messages. The stinging threat of personal TCPA liability cannot be emphasized enough!!

Its a huge podcast and a great one to relax to and pass those long winter nights with a bit of egg nog!

Chat soon everyone.

Well we took a long break between episodes as the Czar and Queenie were on a national speaking tour all throughout the summer.

But we're back and have an absolutely packed episode that cannot be missed.

Yes, we talk Trump and the election, the one-to-one, and the revocation ruling and AI and really everything you could possibly want to know about the TCPA in a 1 hour format. Just critical stuff.

But you come for the news but you can't miss the interview. Alex Kruzyk is the latest MONSTER TCPA litigator on the plaintiffs' side and he joins us to discuss his new practice.

Alex grew up under Greenwald-- the ultimate TCPA monster--and he is already showing off with TCPA settlements under his belt. The guy is laser focused on suing real estate purchasers/investors-- guys that cold call people asking if they want to sell their house.

Alex is convinced this qualifies as telephone solicitation-- he's wrong, but the courts keep agreeing with him.

Plus wait until you hear about his view on the new one-to-one rule-- my goodness.

Anyway definitely an interview you can't miss. Brittany even characterized it as "fine," which means it was really good. hahahahaha

Love ya'll chat soon.
