Buzz buzz buzz.

Everyone’s buzzing about LCOC IV– just three weeks away!!!!

As we head into the final push to the big show– Law Conference of Champions May 4-6, 2026– we are going to be doing a deeper dive into each of the sessions you are all looking forward to.

Let’s start with fan favorite Tori Guidry’s AI in the Afternoon session.

AI in the Afternoon has been a hit ever since the very first year we put on the show.

And if you think the Dame isn’t a crowd pleaser just check out her entrance a couple years ago:

Tori, Tori, Tori!

The Dame is simply amazing and this year she will be joined by an incredible line up of speakers backing her up.

First you have Joseph Ford from NBC Universal. He’s just the Vice President, Legal for Marketing & Content Compliance, and OH YEAH, AI Strategy for Media.

So you want to hear about AI media strategy? I’ll bet you do. Well don’t worry we’ll have Ford on the stage and I think he can tell you a thing or two about it. I know I’ll learn a thing or ten.

So how do you top that?

You don’t. But if you were trying to– how about Jeremy Gladstone Strategic Legal Advisor for Block? Hmmm what could an in house lawyer at Block tell us about AI deployment? Umm let’s see– oh yeah, 4,000 of its workers were just laid off as part of Jack Dorsey’s INSANE push to replace as many people with AI as fast as possible.

Cannot wait to see how that works out– and also to ask Jeremy all about it!

Last we have the incredible Derek Walton of Purple! Derek was incredible on stage last year and really demonstrated his knowledge of AI deployment in the marketing and media game. Purple continues to expand marketshare through homegrown AI algorithmic targeting and its simply amazing.

LCOC IV is the only place you can hear from Derek about how Purple’s ahead-of-the-curve AI deployment really lead to rapid growth and put them ahead of competitors with the youth– making Purple one of the top brands in the space.

Notice who we DON’T have on the panel– AI voice outreach vendors. Sure the show is sponsored by Bigly Sales–an elite AI voice outreach platform– but we didn’t want to lard up a slick AI ADVERTISING law panel with a vendor who will just pitch its wares. This is what Law Conference of Champions does different– the people you will hear from are true EXPERTS in the legal field that can really help you navigate the compliance pitfalls of AI deployment from real world experience.

Its all going down May 6, 2026 at 2:15 pm at Law Conference of Champions IV!!!

Be there my friends. Or miss out. Your choice. 🙂

Chat soon.

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.
