A TCPA litigation firewall is a term often used for a metaphorical defense mechanism to protect a company against known TCPA litigators. The ‘firewall’ refers to a comprehensive process that a business can rely upon to identify and remove known litigators with confidence. An end-to-end compliance process is intended to help businesses protect themselves from the financial and legal risks associated with Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) violations.
With the rise of litigation abuse, where opportunistic litigators target businesses for minor or unintentional violations, having a litigation firewall in place is critical for companies engaged in telemarketing or SMS marketing.
This firewall acts as a safeguard, filtering out high-risk phone numbers linked to known litigators and preventing calls or texts to individuals who could pursue costly lawsuits.
