Q: How much one can recover for damages from violation of TCPA

People who receive telemarketing calls, unsolicited faxes, pre-recorded and/or automated calls to their cell phones or residential landlines, may file a lawsuit against the telemarketer or debt collector for the violation of the TCPA.

A consumer can recover:

• up to $500 for each violation of the Do-Not-Call registry
• up to $500 per phone call that violates the TCPA
• up to $1,500 per phone call if the consumer can show that the TCPA was violated knowingly and willfully
