Add a comment

Well its hardly 6 am here on the West Coast but I couldn’t wait another minute to introduce you all to Troutman Firm’s latest FANTASTIC hire- Angelika Munger!

Angelika will be the firms FIRST paralegal–super awesome to have one of those–and consultant focused largely on MARKETING compliance assistance and state law matters. (For those of you looking for STATE law resources on TCPA, CIPA, direct mail and general state-specific marketing related advice look no further!)

And her royal court name will be THE DUCHESS!!!

YAY!

So much poise!

Tough to imagine someone better qualified for the role. Angelika joins the Firm most recently from Rate Marketplace–a fantastic company and a TRUE leader in performance marketing and data–where she assisted with compliance oversight.

Prior to that she spent many years with loanDepot–under the tutelage of Queenie!–serving as a compliance analyst serving as a CRITICAL resource for business and responsible for vetting major projects and marketing creatives.

According to Queenie, Angelika is pretty much the best thing since sliced bread:

“I am so incredibly excited to be bringing Angelika in. She was FANTASTIC to work with. So sharp. So intuitive and knowledgeable. Really just the best resource someone could hope for in a role like hers.” Puja said.

Obviously I’m pretty happy about this as well. As I continue building out the ultimate SUPER TEAM, having somebody with Angelika’s incredible experience and depth in a paralegal role is almost an unfair advantage. No one can match what we’re building over here–which is EXACTLY what I promised when I set out to build the world’s greatest law firm. (And ANOTHER  huge addition coming next week!!!)

She’s happy to be here and we’re HAPPY to have her!

Really pleased to be able to roll out a new level of service around state-specific offerings now that Angelika is here.  She brings that CATALOG of knowledge that we needed! Troutman Firm now will have 50 state resources available, a la carte. Which is just fun.

Speaking of fun–and not to detract about the big news of Angelika’s arrival–but I’m teaming up with Mike Ferree for a really critical update on the BIG recent news:

  1. The CFPB being struck down as unconstitutional (sort of);
  2. The Ninth Circuit’s stinging rebuke of Porch and what it means for B2B callers; and
  3. The Ninth Circuit saving Visalus from certain destruction with a ruling that changes the TCPAWorld–and potentially for the better.

This is some sort of a linkedin/live podcast thing that Mike set up so I’m not really sure how you register for it (or maybe you just show up?).

OCTOBER 26, 2022 (WEDNESDAY!) AT 12 NOON PACIFIC!

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.
