Florida TCPA Lawyer for Unwanted Robocalls & Spam Texts
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) protects consumers from certain unwanted robocalls, prerecorded calls, telemarketing calls, and spam text messages.
If a company is repeatedly calling or texting you without the required consent — or continues after you've told them to STOP — you may have rights under federal law.
Fischetti Law Group represents Florida consumers in TCPA claims involving unwanted calls and text messages. Our Florida TCPA lawyers can review the communications you've received and determine whether they may violate the TCPA or other consumer protection laws and whether compensation may be available.

Never Gave Consent? Or Told Them to Stop?
Consent can be an important issue in a TCPA claim. Certain automated or prerecorded calls and text messages may require prior consent, with additional requirements applying to certain telemarketing communications.
Giving permission once doesn't necessarily mean you have to accept covered calls or texts forever. Depending on the circumstances, consumers may be able to revoke consent.
If you replied STOP, unsubscribed, asked a caller to stop, or are receiving repeated communications you never authorized, save the calls, texts, and proof of your opt-out request.
Not every unwanted robocall or spam text violates the TCPA. A Florida TCPA lawyer at Fischetti Law Group can review what happened and help determine whether you may have a claim.
Getting Unwanted Sales Calls or Texts in Florida?
Florida consumers have additional tools available to help reduce unwanted telemarketing calls and sales text messages.
If you're a Florida resident, consider registering your phone number with both the Florida Do Not Call List and the National Do Not Call Registry.
Already registered and still getting unwanted telemarketing calls or texts? Keep a record of what you're receiving, including the phone number, company, date, time, and message.
Registration does not stop every unwanted communication, and not every call or text is prohibited. However, your registration status may be relevant when evaluating certain telemarketing calls and texts.
You do not necessarily need to be registered on a Do Not Call list to potentially have a TCPA claim. TCPA protections can apply in other circumstances, including certain prerecorded or automated communications and issues involving consent.
Register Your Phone Number
Florida residents can register with both Do Not Call lists for free.
Add your Florida residential or mobile phone number to the state's Do Not Call List.
Join the Florida Do Not Call List →Register your home or mobile phone number with the National Do Not Call Registry.
Join the National Do Not Call Registry →Registration is free. Do Not Call protections have exceptions, and registration does not prevent all unwanted or unlawful calls.
You May Be Entitled to Compensation for TCPA Violations
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act provides statutory damages for certain qualifying violations involving calls and text messages.
*Every situation is different. Whether TCPA damages are available and the amount of any recovery depend on the facts of the case, whether a qualifying violation occurred, and applicable law.

Do I Have a TCPA Claim for Unwanted Calls or Texts?
TCPA claims can involve different types of unwanted calls and text messages. Not every unwanted communication violates the law, but if one of these situations sounds familiar, save the communications and let our team review what happened.
Calls & Texts Without Your Consent
Certain automated or prerecorded calls and text messages may require prior consent, with additional requirements applying to certain telemarketing communications.
If you're receiving repeated communications from a company you don't recognize, don't remember authorizing, or never asked to hear from, preserve them for review.
Calls & Texts After You Said STOP
If you replied STOP, unsubscribed, or otherwise revoked consent and covered calls or texts continued, save both the communications and your opt-out request.
Robocalls & Prerecorded Messages
The TCPA restricts certain calls using automated technology or artificial or prerecorded voices. Save your call history, voicemails, and information identifying the caller.
Spam & Marketing Text Messages
Certain spam or marketing text messages may fall under TCPA protections. Preserve the full conversation, sender information, dates, promotional messages, and any STOP or opt-out requests.
Do Not Call Violations
Federal and Florida rules provide protections against certain unwanted telephone solicitations, including rules associated with Do Not Call registries.
If you're registered and continue receiving unwanted telemarketing communications, document the caller, phone number, company, dates, frequency, and nature of the communications.
Wrong-Number Calls & Texts
If automated calls or texts are intended for someone else, tell the sender they have the wrong number and preserve the communications.
If they continue contacting you, submit what you're receiving for review.
Frequently Asked Questions About TCPA Claims
Have questions about unwanted robocalls, spam texts, telemarketing calls, or your rights under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act? Here are some common questions.
What is the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)?
The TCPA is a federal consumer protection law that restricts certain telephone calls, prerecorded or artificial voice messages, and text messages. The protections that apply depend on the type of communication and the circumstances.
Can I have a claim for unwanted spam text messages in Florida?
Potentially. Certain unwanted marketing or automated text messages may be covered by the TCPA or other consumer protection rules. Whether you have a claim depends on factors including the type of message, who sent it, and consent.
What if a company keeps calling or texting after I say STOP?
If you revoked consent or opted out and covered calls or text messages continued, preserve the messages, call logs, and proof of your STOP or opt-out request. That information may be important when evaluating a potential TCPA claim.
How much can a TCPA violation be worth?
The TCPA provides statutory damages of $500 for certain qualifying violations. A court may increase damages up to $1,500 for certain violations found to be willful or knowing. The amount available depends on the facts and applicable law.
Do I need to be on the Do Not Call Registry to have a TCPA claim?
Not necessarily. Do Not Call registration can be relevant to certain telemarketing claims, but TCPA protections can also apply in other circumstances involving consent, prerecorded or artificial voice calls, and other covered communications.
What should I save for a Florida TCPA lawyer to review?
Save screenshots, text-message threads, call logs, voicemails, phone numbers, company names, dates, times, and any STOP, unsubscribe, or other opt-out requests. Avoid deleting communications that may help document what happened.
