TCPAWORLD AFTER DARK: What Should We Name our Big HOT Summer Compliance Show in Vegas Town?

1 Comment

And no we won’t call it the Big HOT Summer Compliance Show in Vegas Town. Probably.

So you’ve heard a lot about this huge show we’re putting on. The planning for this thing is almost complete and it is going to be really special.

CID workshop, data breach stuff, CFPB stuff, and a segment called “Car Bombs with the Czar.” I mean, come on.

Two full days of compliance paradise in a dry heat. And yes I thought about calling it the Dry Heat Compliance Paradise, but we have other options to choose from.

Speaking of which we need YOUR help to name this thing.

Backing up, this will be the inaugural event of TCPAWorld.com’s FIRST EVER co-branded conference. We plan to do it every single year smack dab in the middle of summer because–hot.

This thing will be incredibly awesome–I guarantee it–a complete departure from the stuffy boring legal conferences you’re used to. And CLE Credit!

MMM HMMM.

Obviously it will be fun, but also full of nerdy stuff and reliable legal advice–not “legal advice” but advice about the law, if you know what I mean– and HANDS ON workshop projecteering and networking induced by bloody mary’s (maries?)(maryses?) and the blistering Vegas sun.

I cannot wait.

Anyway, so here are the names we have so far. I need YOUR vote. (Or, if you have a better idea for a name, let me know.)

You can shoot me an email with your vote if you’re shy at eric.troutman@squirepb.com, or you can leave your mention as a comment below if you’re feeling more social.

Without further adieu, our possible names are:

  • Summertime Compliance Dreamworld (or Midsummer’s Compliance Dreamworld, for a Shakespearean twist);
  • The Great Vegas Compliance Riot–has a bit of a caperish feel with just enough dystopia to keep us grounded;
  • The Vegas Legal Affairs Workshop and Summertime Extravaganza — which sucks as a name until you start playing with acronyms  *ahem*;
  • Hot Vegas Summer Compliance Palooza– Its just “on the nose” enough to work;
  • The Big HOT Summer Compliance Show in Vegas Town– All right fine, it made the list.

And right about now you realize, this thing is going to be a “blast” and you have to get tickets….

But first–VOTE.

July 22, 23, 2021.

Also I am hearing the admission price will be less than my hourly billable rate. And I’ll be there. For two entire days. Hmmmm.

DO NOT MISS THIS THING.

The Czar of TCPAWorld Eric Troutman is one of the country’s prominent class action defense lawyers and is nationally recognized in Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) litigation and compliance. He has served as lead defense counsel in more than 70 national TCPA class actions and has litigated nearly a thousand individual TCPA cases in his role as national strategic litigation counsel for major banks and finance companies. He also helps industry participants build TCPA-compliant processes, policies, and systems. Eric has built a national litigation practice based upon deep experience, rigorous analysis and extraordinary responsiveness. Eric and his team feel equally at home litigating multibillion dollar telecommunications class actions in federal court as they do developing and executing national litigation strategies for institutions facing an onslaught of individual TCPA matters. They thrive in each of these roles – delivering consistently excellent results – while never losing sight of the client experience. While many firms now tout TCPA expertise, Eric has been there from the beginning. He built one of the country’s first TCPA-only defense teams and began serving as national TCPA counsel for his clients nearly a decade ago. This perspective allows him to swiftly develop the right litigation strategies for dealing with recurring problems, without wasting time on tactics that are bound to fail. Eric’s rich historical perspective and encyclopedic knowledge of the TCPA landscape also make him an invaluable resource to institutional compliance teams struggling to comply with the shifting regulatory landscape. No task is too small – or too big. Indeed, Eric and his team have helped build TCPA-compliant systems and processes for some of the largest and most complex corporate entities in the country. He commonly works with in-house compliance counsel to build and implement enterprise and business-line specific TCPA solutions, performs TCPA audits and drafts and reviews proposed TCPA policies and procedures. He and his team also have the technical expertise necessary to assist call centers seeking to develop TCPA-resistant call path architecture or to modify existing telephony and software integration to better insulate from potential TCPA exposure. Eric has built a reputation for thought leadership. An avid blogger and speaker, he has been at the forefront of the industry’s effort to push for clarity and a return to sanity for the TCPA for years. He was selected to advocate for the financial services industry on important TCPA issues before the Federal Communications Commission and co-authored the nation’s only comprehensive practice guide on TCPA defense. In his spare time, Eric leads defense teams representing banks and other financial services companies in consumer finance litigation matters. He has experience representing clients in UCC, TILA, RESPA FCRA, CCRA, CLRA, FDCPA, RFDCPA and FCCPA claims, as well as in fraud and bank operations issues.
