About TCPAWorld

TCPAworld.com isn’t just a blog, its a lifestyle obsession for those that eat, sleep, and breathe the TCPA like we do.

We’ll break all the TCPA news–usually before anyone else does–with witty and informative articles that break the mold of stuffy law firm analysis. Yet the analysis you’ll find will always be dead on and steeped in our decades of combined TCPA defense experience.

We do it all for free- no advertisements (other than shameless plugs for my law firm).

The opinions expressed in content on TCPAworld are solely those of the authors and contributors that share their content here.

All content copyright Eric J. Troutman, except that contributors retain license to use and re-publish their works.
