TCPA & Telecommunications Class Actions
BRG experts help clients understand the nature of data, its limitations, and how it can be appropriately segmented and categorized in the context of class action certification and damages calculations.
BRG’s Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and Telecommunications Class Actions practice provides comprehensive technical consulting services to industries navigating complex compliance issues. We also assist clients confronting high-stakes litigation exposure arising from telecommunication regulation. Our professionals are experts in analyzing complex databases that contain evidence relating to subject calls, texts, faxes, and ringless voicemails. We apply this expertise to help clients resolve disputes and develop compliance programs to avoid future disputes.
Who We Are
BRG professionals have expertise across an array of specialized technical issues that arise in TCPA litigation. For example:
- A financial institution defeated class certification as BRG professionals identified that the proposed class of “wrong-number” plaintiffs would require individualized mini-trials into issues of consent.
- A telemarketer succeeded on summary judgment as BRG professionals opined on the question of whether the dialing system used was an automated telephone dialing system (ATDS).
- A financial institution won on summary judgment after BRG identified that the plaintiff, who sought to certify a class on the basis of having received automated text messages, was receiving automated responses to messages originally sent from the plaintiff’s own phone.
- In a class action involving debt collection calls for loans secured by residential mortgage-backed securities, BRG professionals provided expert testimony regarding class member identification.
