I was referred to Robert by Ruge Law Group when they were actually KRG Law Group. They handled a car accident I was involved in. This was a business debt collection levied against our company by an employee’s debt collector. He and his colleagues handled it flawlessly. He and his staff are beyond impressive and do everything they can to take the cases brought before them. I came back to them with a very big case. I don’t want to dox anyone in the office other than the name on the business. However, they handled it in the most professional, respectful, and caring way possible. J, you did an amazing job and due diligence! Robert, I wanted to personally thank you for representing us in the past and in the future. You and your paralegals are above Top Shelf. This firm is straight Louis XIII.
What “Do Not Call” List??
Many small businesses look to increase sales by telemarketing. This can be a very dangerous and costly endeavor if done incorrectly.
The rules and penalties for violating the Florida or Federal rules for telemarketing can be overwhelming. State penalties can be up to $10,000 per violation and Federal up to $16,000 per violation. This is enough to put many companies out of business. I have both my residence and cell number on the Federal Do Not Call registry and I still receive calls from telemarketers. Why? Because very few businesses actually comply with the telemarketing law.
Our firm has defended many companies against the Federal Trade Commission complaints – along with the possible penalties, these lawsuits also get very expensive. A good telemarketing plan will help you avoid headaches later!
Make sure you consult your attorney before beginning any telemarketing plans or you can contact us for a consultation.
