Abstract
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) landscape continues to evolve because of recent regulatory revamps. Recently, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released a Report and Order to update several TCPA exemptions. The Report and Order codifies existing exemptions for calls to wireless numbers and revises certain TCPA exemptions for calls made to residential telephone lines.
These notable regulatory developments confront companies with a myriad of critical issues and compliance hurdles, which, if not mitigated, could incur legal liabilities. Thus, it becomes imperative that businesses carefully revisit their compliance programs. They must also keep themselves abreast of emerging developments to avoid pitfalls.
Join litigation attorneys Thomas Woods (Stoel Rives LLP) and Benjamin D. Carnahan (Walter | Haverfield) as they provide the audience with an in-depth analysis of up-to-date trends and developments in TCPA. Speakers, among other things, will present critical risk issues and share best compliance practices in this evolving legal climate.
Key topics include:
• Trends and Updates in Telephone Consumer Protection Act
• Recent Enforcement Priorities
• Compliance Risk Issues and Challenges
• Risk Mitigation Strategies
• Best Compliance Practices
• A Regulatory Outlook
