Squire Patton Boggs Goes to Las Vegas: We’re Taking Over LeadsCon with Three Can’t Miss Sessions

Add a comment

I’m pretty sure I work at the most powerful firm in the world.

I mean, its tough to quantify that. There’s a bunch of different metrics you can use to assess “power” in various contexts. But when I sit back and I think about the stable of beastly litigators we have here, coupled with the global presence (44 offices- 44), the wide ranging practice areas and the roots in DC where we seem to be dug into everything that goes on out there (and I seem to know everything before it happens), I just can’t think of another firm that has the “getitdoneability” of Squire Patton Boggs.

And then I admire our upcoming invasion of LeadsCon and I just have to smile.

So everyone knows LeadsCon as pretty much the biggest coolest advertising conference out there–with due respect to all the others. Its in Vegas–which gives it instant cool factor. And is focused on online lead generation and performance marketing– which has become one of the coolest segments of the marketing world now that no one watches TV anymore.

Apparently this is after-party life at LeadsCon. I’ll be in bed.

Social media advertising is what matters–you know, subliminally controlling people’s minds while they “connect” with one another–and there’s tons of companies doing just that that’ll be in Vegas next week; making sure that the Brands they service remain the Brands you love.

Unrelated–did you know the Czar has never had a social media account?

My hotel room at 6 a.m. in Vegas.

Anyway, the coolest part of all–from my perspective at least–is that these folks all need a bunch of legal advice. And the firm they turn to more than any other–at least as far as I can tell–is Squire Patton Boggs.

Want proof? Of course you do. You desperately want proof.

Well at LeadsCon 2021–happening next week— we’ll be providing three critical sessions to folks in this space. And I can’t wait.

So 11:40 am on October 21 we’ll be presenting in the big GRAND BALLROOM and it will be awesome. I’ll be moderating a panel including Queenie, Kevin Rockoff, General Counsel, SmartFinancial and Nima Hakimi, Co-Founder and CEO, Convoso. 

Talk about Firepower! Wow.

But Squire Patton Boggs’ take over of LeadsCon doesn’t end there.

At 9:00 am on October 22, TCPAWorld.com’s Red Knight–Jack Kingston–will be speaking on Effective Advocacy and Lobbying for the Lead Generation Industry. This guy gave an amazing speech at the Palooza, and the folks at LeadsCouncil couldn’t wait to him him back.

And then at 10:00 am on October 22 the powerful Archduke of the Realm joins the stage to discuss Public Relations for the Lead Industry with our buddies Vlada Galan, and George Birnbaum.

One firm.

Three speaking slots.

At the biggest event of the year.

Pretty powerful stuff.

Now I will note that there appears to be another session on the agenda where TCPA will be discussed and–apparently–I’m not on the panel (what gives Yung?). Probably just an oversight. I’ll be sure to swing by the session though. Maybe hand out a hat or two.

Hope to see you all 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.
