ITS SOLSTICE TIME!: Enjoy Your Long Winter’s Nap Looking Forward to Next Year’s Big Events

Add a comment

Well folks, the day is finally upon us.

Every year the Czar is a hard charging tough-as-nails litigator for ~50 weeks out of the year, but those last 14 days or so… time for a long winter’s nap.

You won’t be hearing from me (much) these next few weeks as I turn down the jets and curl up next to the solstice fire with the fam to enjoy all the good things in life that aren’t TCPA related.

I hope you get the chance to rest and spend some time with your families as well.

But I know all of you won’t just have sugar plums dancing in your heads–you’re looking forward to seeing the Czar in person again next year.

Don’t worry, I’ll be here for you again in 2022.

In fact, you won’t have to wait long at all as Squire Patton Boggs is the OFFICIAL legal sponsor of Lead Generation World San Diego. I’ll be taking the stage for an hour of FRESH content January 16-28, 2022.  You won’t want to miss that.

I don’t have anything scheduled in February just yet–but I suspect that will change shortly. Stay tuned.

Moving to March, we have a huge agenda. First, we have the BIG show– CBA Live! Mon, Mar 7, 2022 – Wed, Mar 9, 2022 at the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa. Now that is always a huge and well attended show with all my banking friends.

Plus I love the slogan: “BRING IT”. hahahah Indeed. More details soon.  

Shortly thereafter I’ll be pulling a coast-to-coast gig hitting both PACE’s annual ACX in Florida, March 20-22, 2022. And then turning around for VEGAS (again?) and LeadsCon 2022, on overlapping days: Mar 21, 2022 – Wed, Mar 23, 2022.

Yikes.

Then in April, I’ll be speaking at the Alvaria Executive Leadership Summit in Clearwater Beach, Florida (wasn’t I just there?) April 26-28, 2022.

PLUS: I’ll soon start work on my world-famous TCPA Annual Review. Last year the Review was presented by the good people at Drips. This year…to be announced.

Now the real question, will I have the review prepared ahead of LGW?

I’ll certainly need to rest up to be in condition to pull all of this off. So please forgive the relative silence.

Of course if you’re looking for good content over the holiday break, be sure to re-watch some of your favorite Unprecedented episodes as you slip into an eggnog induced slumber.

Happy Holidays TCPAWorld, and best wishes on a joyful and triumphant new year!!!

Published by Eric J. Troutman

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.
