ITS HAPPENING: Jack Kingston–former vice-chair of the Republican Conference–to Speak at the Palooza!

Add a comment

One of the best parts about working at Squire Patton Boggs is getting to rub shoulders with all the great politicians that haunt the halls here.

SPB is, of course, as well known for its beltway chops and policy connections as it is for its privacy litigation and TCPA acumen. And its super groovy when the two come together.

Like at the Palooza next week.

Jack Kingston, the longtime former U.S. representative (Congressman) from the now-swing state of Georgia who was part of the House leadership and served as vice-chair of the Republican Conference, is coming to the Palooza!

Jack will anchor a great second day of the event that will also feature speaking appearances by loanDepot’s Puja Amin (the famous “Queenie” of the TCPA) and eXp Realty’s Ari Kasper (this guy needs a nickname!)

The second day will start with a great discussion of data breach prevention and response, move to a discussion of CFPB CIDs and FCRA and conclude with a great TCPA discussion (and car bombs!)

I know a huge number of you are headed out for the event and its going to be a great time, especially now that Jack is on board.

And don’t forget about our first day KEYNOTES George Birnbaum—former campaign consultant and Chief of Staff for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu–and international woman of mystery Vlada Galan speaking about crisis management.

This is me right now:

See you out there.

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.
