1 Comment

So a bunch of you have been emailing asking for the link to the webinar we did last week.

I know I didn’t promote it very well but I also knew I would put it up on the YouTube channel for you all to watch after the fact. 🙂

And so I have.

In the webinar we break down EXACTLY what went wrong for Assurance IQ and Media Alpha and there are some huge lessons here (yes, more than just “don’t hire #biglaw” hahaha.)

Plus we walk through some of the abusive (terrible) non-monetary terms these companies agreed to and it is a real eye opener– and some of it even applies to folks who are working with these folks today!

You must watch this one folks!

Anyway it was a real eye opener for many– so watch it!

Meanwhile, our YouTube channel is just exploding right now. I can’t even keep up with all the new subscribers. We have over 4,700 now! Really cool to see.

Obviously word has caught on about the CRITICAL content the firm is pumping out — no wonder we now have more YouTube followers than ANY AMLAW 100 law firm!

Not bad for a firm that’s only been around 3 years or so.

Anyhoo, enjoy the webinar and check back TOMORROW for the drop of the incredible 35th Edition of the Deserve to Win podcast– WITH THE WOLF ANTHONY PARONICH talking #biglaw and McKesson and all kinds of fun stuff!

Full episode out tomorrow!!!!

Chat soon.

Published by Eric "Czar" 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.

  1. Well worth the watch folks!

    While the (clearly indefensible) scumbags in question were in fact selling crap policies to unsuspecting folks. They deserve everything that might actually result…

    Also proves Prudential needs to fire a bunch of folks that perform their due diligence (or not doing any in this case) prior to any/all acquisitions – maybe they were just looking for some big write-offs?!?!?

    But the high point is watching Queenie slam the Czar and put him in his place!!

    Yeah, compliance is the name of the game (especially in this vertical) and Puja clearly shows her expertise – totally amazing. Hell, I’d even go as far as say it’s time to re-brand as Amin-Troutman, LLP

    What needs to be remembered (and yes Eric, I’m talking to you) is that medical insurance has at the very least inherently massive financial AND at worse actual life & death consequences.

    Note: these aren’t worthless extended auto warranties, or solar panels. Don’t f*ck around and sell people crap while stating otherwise. Is that why CMS has additional laws covering its marketing (TBH I’ve never delved into that vertical but know you’ve had numerous posts about that) https://tcpaworld.com/?s=CMS+
