TCPA CLASS ACTION FILINGS EXPLODE: The MASSIVE Final Numbers Are In for 2024–And January, 2025 Numbers Are INSANE

1 Comment

These numbers are just insane.

85.3% of all TCPA filings in December, 2024 were class actions.

85.3%.

I can pretty much guarantee that is the highest percentage of cases to be filed as a class action under any statute at any point in the history of our country.

Oh wait, I lied.

In November, 2024 an INSANE 95.5% —95.5%!!!–of TCPA filings were class actions.

Welcome to TCPAWorld.

To add to the fun, a total of 2788 TCPA cases were filed last year UP 67% from 2023.

A 67% rise in TCPA suits year-over-year folks.

And considering that class actions now account for over 80% of those filings 2024 saw the highest number of TCPA class actions in history!

Insanity.

Want more fun?

The numbers for January, 2025 are also in.

172 TCPA class actions in January, 2025!

In January, 2024 there were 64.

64 to 172.

That’s a 268% rise in TCPA class actions to start 2025 over 2024!!!!!

*Insert head exploding emjoi here.*

Yes, it is only one month but considering how steep a rise 2024 saw the fact that 2025 is already SMOKING 2024 filings is real cause for concern.

So to summarize:

  • TCPA cases were up 67% last year;
  • Over 80% of filings are now class actions;
  • TCPA class action filings were up over 250% in January, 2025 YOY.

Wow.

And each one of these lawsuits has the ability to END a company. No wonder I have dedicated my career to keeping people safe in the TCPAWorld!

My goodness.

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.

  1. 2788 lawsuits?!? Wow, that sure is a lot for a mere 52,800,000,000 robocalls. Why that is 1 lawsuit for every 18,938,000 calls. I mean come on, there were only 1,100,000 robocall complaints filed with the FTC, 1 every 48,000 robocalls. What a bunch of ungrateful consumers.
