Add a comment

Well folks I know it has been a few weeks since we recorded this one but we had so much going on in July–and then the whole changing the firm name thing ;)–so we held this one back for a bit.

But the world changes NOW– thanks to Episode 14 of Deserve to Win. 

Abbas Kazerounian

Abbas Kazerounian is one of the most creative and  talented lawyers in the TCPAWorld. He is known as the “Godfather” of TCPA class litigation because he was one of the architects of the fist TCPA cases back in 2006-2008 and cashed in early on the first wave of massive TCPA settlements.

Parlaying those early gains, he has built a monster litigation shop with 25 lawyers pushing “consumer protection” litigation under a host of strategies and has proven to be one of the most sophisticated and talented class litigators on the planet. Abbas’ shop can hit against anybody and he is never outgunned. Incredibly talented lawyers work for him across the country.

Abbas Queenie and I…

But what Abbas is best known for is creative thinking. Like the Czar, Abbas can outmaneuver and outflank litigation opponents seemingly at will and he is always developing new strategies and tactics and pushing the bounds of the law. Very dangerous opponent.

The interview.. 

Despite the many bloody battles we have waged, the Godfather and the Czar legitimately enjoy talking with one another when they can put down their swords for a bit, and that was exactly what happened in this amazing podcast interview. Tune in to find out:

  • How Abbas got started working out of a Seattle’s Best Coffee and signing up clients on napkins;
  • How he sees the future of TCPA litigation;
  • Why he LOVES CIPA cases–and particular CIPA cell phone cases;
  • His views on Cryo therapy and ice baths; and
  • His views on how AI will disrupt the legal industry.

Incredibly fascinating stuff.

Before we get there though the team–and yes, you get to meet the Viceroy!–breaks down all the big new TCPAWorld developments including:

And unlike basically EVERY other law firm, you get to hear from the team and not just from the partners here. Great opportunity to get to know the incredible TALENT here at Troutman Amin, LLP and see everyone in action!

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.
