Practice Contacts

Taft has one of the leading TCPA defense practices in the country. Our TCPA attorneys have defended hundreds of TCPA class actions and individual suits for more than 15 years.

We defend TCPA class actions all over the country, and our deep knowledge and experience in this area allows us to provide effective and efficient representation. Our clients range from mid-sized businesses to some of the most reputable and well-known companies in the world.

Our TCPA defense attorneys bring a practical, results-driven approach that is based on each client’s goals. We know the law, the primary cases, and the applicable FCC regulations. Our TCPA attorneys do not have to get up to speed. We also understand our clients often want to move past these TCPA matters as quickly as possible. But when the stakes are high and our clients feel compelled to defend, we litigate accordingly.

Taft’s TCPA team works hand-in-hand with lawyers in Taft’s Class Action Litigation practice. We find that in the class action arena; it is rare that lawsuits make it through trials to verdict on the merits alone. More typically, the litigation’s outcome is determined early in preliminary issues, including whether the initial complaint is dismissed or a class is certified – and this is an area where our TCPA attorneys thrive.

Notable Matters

Taft’s TCPA experience includes representing:

The world’s leading business information provider in several TCPA suits and class actions nationwide. We obtained summary judgment for our client in the Central District of California in a TCPA class action stemming from alleged auto-dialed calls to the plaintiff’s cell phone.
A national modeling agency in the Northern District of Illinois in a TCPA class action. We obtained a favorable settlement on the eve of depositions.
A national retail chain of farming equipment stores in the Northern District of Ohio. We hit the plaintiff with discovery and moved to bifurcate the case in the initial stages, which brought the plaintiff to the table and forced an extremely reasonable settlement.
A national staffing company in the Northern District of Ohio. We moved to dismiss, took the plaintiff’s deposition, and filed motions that forced an early and favorable settlement.
The largest caller and retailer of security services in the United States in a TCPA class action in Chicago. We had the case stayed and discovery bifurcated, and then we moved to dismiss for lack of standing at the outset of the case. Ultimately, the plaintiff reached out for a settlement. We reached a favorable resolution for the client and even negotiated with co-defendants and insurers such that our client paid nothing in exchange for a full release.
A national cable company in the Northern District of Illinois in a TCPA class action. We obtained a favorable class-wide settlement after proving to the plaintiff that much of the class had consented to receive calls.
A large Ohio-based financial institution in three TCPA suits in the Northern District of Illinois filed against the company’s short-term lending brands. We settled all three cases for nominal amounts, driving the plaintiff to the settlement table after enforcing an arbitration clause and causing enough headaches.
One of the largest mortgage lenders in the United States in a TCPA class action in the Central District of California. We pressed our co-defendant for favorable discovery and settled the case for a nominal amount after just a month of litigation.
A national mortgage sub-servicer in a TCPA suit filed in the Northern District of Illinois. We conducted a quick internal investigation for favorable discovery that led to a nominal settlement and early dismissal of our client.
